Festinger and Carlsmith (1959) asked participants to perform a boring task and then paid them either $20 or $1 to lie to the next participant, telling them that the task was enjoyable. Afterwards they asked participants to rate how much they liked the task. Participants who received $1 rated the task as more enjoyable than participants who received $20. What has been proposed as a likely reason for this result?
◦ The participants paid $20 actually liked the task but lied about how they felt.
◦ The participants paid $1 actually disliked the task but lied about how they felt.
◦ The participants paid $1 did not have sufficient justification for lying so changed their attitude to match their behavior.
◦ The participants paid $20 experienced cognitive dissonance.
