Verdich [7]

Answer:

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, Sonya thought sororities were filled with snobs, however during her first week in campus she was approached by a sorority member who invited her to a social function.

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

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

How are federal amendments made?
frez [133]
Federal Amendments are only made (in my opinion) if something terrible is going on often and/or if the government think it’s right to put out these laws for safety or for equality and fairness.

Why does ethnocentrism limit our view of other cultures?
lukranit [14]

Answer:

Ethnocentrism can make you sort of blind to new things in other cultures and sometimes make you right them off as strange or unnatural, when in fact it's most likely just that it's something we aren't used to seeing in our own cultures. The United States has a lot of very deep-rooted and socio systematic ethnocentrism that I think affects a lot of Americans so heavily they don't even notice it, but ethnocentrism comes in many forms throughout many groups of people, not just Americans. Ethnocentrism can make you unable to fully take in another culture, and therefore unable to fully understand it and the people it belongs to.
