The theory that best explains Abe's change of attitude towards his action is the Cognitive Dissonance theory.

Cognitive Dissonance is the mental discomfort produced by the <em>contradictory beliefs</em> that a person holds. In this case, Abe suffers from cognitive dissonance as a result of copying answers from his classmate in the exam. In order to relieve from this stress, he tries to <em>justify</em> his action by denying his wrongdoing and transferring responsibility to his classmate by claiming he did not do enough in order to prevent him from copying.

soldier1979 [14.2K]

The given question is incomplete as the group of choices are not given, required to answer the question. However, the group of choices for this question is as follows:

1) stable – if we are there we will stay there, unless outside forces change

2)  unique – there is one and only one equilibrium, a property which follows from the “Law of Demand” and “Law of Supply”

3)  self-enforcing – at higher prices there is downward pressure on price; at lower prices there is upward pressure on price – therefore if we are at some other price, we will be pushed toward the equilibrium price

4)  All of the above statements are correct

Answer:

The correct answer is - option 4. all of the above statements are correct.

If there is an over-supply of products than the demand in the market the prices will go down, which results in higher demand. At higher prices there is pressure on the price to move downward; at lower prices, the pressure would be upward.

Thus, the correct answer is - option 4. all of the statements are correct
