Answer:
why do people have a hard time realizing that the world is changing and that they need to accept it
Explanation:
There are two major factors that stand out to me. . .
1.When Cortes made his journey to sail from across the ocean many knew the trip would be long and with it taking so long before reaching land, many of his men would not be able to bathe or clean themselves resulting in much of the crew getting sick and sharing it among each other on the boat. Upon landing on the Aztec coast him and his men would bring various diseases that would severely weaken the surrounding native tribes, as disease spread rapidly it would eventually topple the Inca and Aztec empires making them easier to conquer.
2.Cortes was from Spain as we all know and at that point in time Spain had the upper hand when it came to weaponry, Cortes and his men carried musket rifles and crossbows, each of em also wore a metal chest piece as armor. it was sturdy and able to easily brush off the Aztec weapons since they only had primitive weapons such as stone clubs, stone tipped arrows or spears. .Aztecs also did not have body armor like the Spaniards wore which left them at a huge disadvantage in combat as the metal armor could deflect most Aztec weaponry making them even easier to conquer.

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.
