The term "dogmatism" refers specifically to an unwarranted certainty in matters of belief or opinion, as opposed to other options such as ethnocentrism (a belief in the superiority of one's own culture) or paranoia (an unfounded fear or suspicion). Egocentrism refers to a perspective centered on oneself, which may or may not involve unwarranted certainty.
