Answer: Reduce Cognitive Dissonance

Explanation: When our behaviors and beliefs conflict or do not align in some way, we might feel cognitive dissonance. We generally try to avoid this feeling, which might mean changing some of our beliefs or behaviors. Changing ones belief system will alleviate the disconnect between thoughts and action.

her major is because she really loves it which conflicts with a long-standing belief that job prospect for people in her field is very low because logically, no one wants to stay in a field with low job prospects.
