In the writing, Why you think you’re right, even when you’re wrong, by Julia Galef, discusses how people can easily be classified into two separate groups; soldiers or scouts. Based on the way people think and how they solve problems, Galef explains that people will either be considered a soldier, who is rooted in a need to protect themselves and their beliefs, or a scout, who try to understand the other opinions and the way they think. Scouts are more open-minded and the better of the two groups.
Scouts try to understand others opinions and are likely to feel intrigued when they encounter something that contradicts their expectations, implying that scouts are open-minded while soldiers are more defensive or do not feel the need to listen
