For this writing assignment, we will be focusing on the construct of cognitive dissonance. The inconsistency that we experience through dissonance may lead to anything from mild feelings of annoyance to an overwhelming sense of desperation and despair. In order to cope with contradiction we might:
- Ignore conflicting information
- become more entrenched in our beliefs, decisions, or actions
- Try to avoid having to face contrary information
- Change our beliefs, decisions, or actions
- Accept the contradiction and allow it to exist
