Why would nicolaus copernicus’ idea be supported today, but maybe not in past?

1 answer:

6 0

Primarily, Nicolaus Copernicus formulated the model of the universe that it was the sun, placed at the center of the universe, rather than the Earth. It is widely accepted nowadays because of the reason that modern scientific discoveries proved that the Earth and other planets revolved around the Sun. Though the Sun is not the center of the universe, but it is the center of the solar system.

Before Copernicus introduced this model, people in the past long believed and accepted the model that the Earth was the center of all so it was hard for the people to immediately accept his model.

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

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