Tim has asked Robin to marry him. Robin isn’t sure whether she loves him enough or whether she ...

Tim has asked Robin to marry him. Robin isn’t sure whether she loves him enough or whether she loves him in the right way. She talks with her sister about all the reasons why it would be wise to marry Tim, and all the reasons why it wouldn’t be such a great idea. According to Wilson’s theory of reasons-generated attitude change, Robin might regret it were she to base her decision on the reasons she mentioned. Why is that?
a.   Her sister will unconsciously reinforce some reasons and punish others.
b.   Reasons Robin generates during the conversation won’t predict her long-term attitudes and feelings very well.
c.   Such objective, dispassionate verbal reports will counteract the passionate feelings she has for Tim.
d.   People often fall prey to post-decision regret, due to their need to justify their decisions.
