Answer:

Her resolution to cognitive dissonance.

Explanation:

In psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental discomfort experienced by a person who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values.

This discomfort is triggered by a situation in which a person's belief clashes with new evidence perceived by the person. When this happens and people are confronted with facts that contradict beliefs, ideals, and values, people will try to find a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce their discomfort.

In this example, Deborah always wanted to go to college at Stanford, however <u>she wasn't accepted there and got accepted at U.C Berkeley, at first she was crushed (experiencing cognitive dissonance) </u>since she wasn't accepted to the school she wanted to attend but as time when by s<u>he started telling teachers and friends that U.C Berkeley was actually more interesting than Stanford. </u>

<u>We can see that she found a way to resolve the contradiction to reduce her discomfort </u>and thus, this statement reflects a resolution to the cognitive dissonance she was experiencing.
