*In psychology, cognitive dissonance is the discomfort experienced when simultaneously holding two or more conflicting cognitions: ideas, beliefs, values or emotional reactions... Cognitive dissonance theory explains human behavior by positing that people have a bias to seek consonance (Congruence?) between their expectations and reality. * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance
