Describe a scenario in which a person with an established attitude goes on to change that attitude because of cognitive dissonance caused by performing a behavior contrary to that attitude. Then describe another person with the same attitude who performs a similar behavior but does not experience cognitive dissonance because of some circumstance that produces consonance. Do not use as your scenario those described in the Unit 9 chapters. Be sure to explicitly describe: the attitude of each person, the behavior, why dissonance occurs, and the consonance and why it reduces dissonance.
