Answer:

a) cognitive dissonance

Explanation:

In psychology, the term cognitive dissonance refers to the mental discomfort experienced by a person who holds contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values.

This discomfort is triggered by a situation in which a person's belief is contradicted by new evidence perceived by the person so the person will try to find a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce their discomfort.

In this example, <u>Jackie thought sororities were filled with snobs,</u> however during her first year in campus <u>she was approached by a sorority member who invited her to a social function</u>.

We  can see that <u>Jackie's beliefs about sororities were contradicted by the new evidence she perceived when she attended the party</u>, this made her feel cognitive dissonance and h<u>er way to resolve the contradiction was to conclude that sororities do a lot of good things</u> for the community.

Thus, Jackie's change in attitude to match her behavior relates to cognitive dissonance.

Students who engaged in cheating would have probably violated which of the following Six Pillars of Character more than the othe
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: TRUSTWORTHINESS.

The six pillars of character was coined by a nonpartisan group of youth development in the year 1992 as “core ethical values that transcend cultural, religious and socioeconomic differences”.

The Six Pillars of Character are: Trustworthiness; Respect; Responsibility; Fairness; Caring and Citizenship.

Of all the 6 pillars, trustworthiness, explains the state of being reliable. Which includes honest communications, not stealing, not CHEATING, not lying, being loyal etc.

Cheating in any form is not an act of trustworthiness. Therefore students who engage in cheating violates TRUSTWORTHINESS.
