Hilarious! I saw this in my psych class last night -- thought it was great! Nice job :)

[YourFavoriteKilljoy]

Thank you! I was having a little trouble totally understanding the concept. Now I will remember forever!

[adellera]

Thank you very much for sharing your video, that both makes the concept stick in the brain and it's so funny :)

I'm reading Elliot Aronson's book "The Social Animal" (for fun) and I was looking for additional examples of "cognitive dissonance" - yours are definitely the best I've found - thanks!

a POLARITY to POLARITY perhaps.

Thanks, is justification inherently part of thee concept, "cognitive dissonance"?

[wraybm1]

@mistaAnthonyWilson Self justification is one of the most common ways we resolve dissonance. The other way is to change the cognition i.e. "I am not the greatest" or "I should stop smoking." It's easy to see how self justification is more common.

[SorinMihaiMNS]

@wraybm1 Well...is there a problem if somebody will not be able to use self justification ? Will that cause the apparition of obsessive thoughts following to the fact that the dissonance will not be solved ? Because self justification distorts reality, doesn't it ?So I guess it could be very well used to manipulate people to do...I dunno...anything :)) considering the logical gaps that you could create. I mean you really could create fanaticism using this :)) Wow, am I diabolic or what?
