Question 2

Vance is quite surprised to hear that his friend Adam has been caught shoplifting, as he has always thought of Adam as someone who is honest, law-abiding, and respectful of others' rights and possessions. There must be a logical explanation for why Adam was seen shoplifting, Vance thinks to himself, and I won't rest until I find out what it is. Vance's motivation can best be explained using the concept of:
 
  a. cognitive dissonance
  b. state anxiety
  c. need for relatedness
  d. optimal level of arousal
