Answer:

a. Oscar would love the fraternity more than Sam because he went through more to get into it.

Explanation:

According to cognitive dissonance, we would expect that<em> Oscar would love the fraternity more than Sam because he went through more to get into it</em>. Cognitive dissonance comes from conflicting beliefs and behaviors which produce mental discomfort. Cognitive is related to mental activities, and the greater the dissonance the more the individual will try to reduce it. The option that Oscar took to reduce the cognitive dissonance is to underestimate the negative aspects associated with the fraternity.
