Cognitive Dissonance
Leon Festinger
INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION: INFLUENCE
Theory Overview 10th Edition
Cognitive dissonance is an aversive drive that causes people to (1) avoid opposing viewpoints, (2) seek reassurance after making a tough decision, and (3) change private beliefs to match public behavior when there is minimal justification for an action. Self-consistency, a sense of personal responsibility, or self-affirmation can explain dissonance reduction. (Socio- psychological tradition)
