Question

After purchasing an expensive pair of shoes, you may question whether or not the shoes are any better than the less expensive shoes you could have purchased instead. This is an example of postpurchase cognitive dissonance. True or false?

Answer 1

Answer:

TRUE

Explanation:

Another name for this dissonance is "buyer's remorse". This dissonance is caused by several factors, but in general, the compulsiveness occurs when the individual desires to fulfill an empty space that is not possible to be fulfilled by other ways, such as family or friends. Another reason for this compulsiveness is the necessity to be accepted or part of a group or some social relationship. No matter the reason, the "buyer's remorse" comes when the individual realizes that the object cannot fulfill the emptiness.
