Cognitive dissonance

Cognitive dissonance is the tension that arises when beliefs, values, or actions conflict with each other.

Definicja

Cognitive dissonance occurs when a person experiences inconsistency between what he thinks, what he declares and what he does. To reduce tension, he may change behavior, update a belief, or justify a contradiction. This mechanism helps to understand rationalizations, resistance to feedback and difficulty in accepting facts that are inconvenient for one's identity.
