ESSAY ON: Cognitive Dissonance and Racism

Number of Pages 9

This research paper: A 9 page research paper that investigates the relationship between cognitive dissonance and racism. The writer argues that if people's true feelings do not match their outward show of non-racist attitudes, it sets up a situation in which cognitive dissonance would propel individuals into, at least privately, rationalizing their any racist attitudes, which would ultimately serve to keep racism alive and well in a covert manner, and that the two research studies profiled support this contention. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
