My Learning NotesCognitive Dissonance
Contents
What is the cognitive dissonance?
- Cognitive dissonance is the situation we live when we receive new information that are in contrast with our existing beliefs.
- When we experience cognitive dissonance, our brain tends to:
- do not considerate the new information that are in contrast with our existing beliefs
- reinterpret the new information to align them to our existing beliefs
- find new information that supports our existing beliefs (confirmation bias) instead to be open to the new information and try to revision our beliefs.
