Recall that Aronson and his colleagues asked college students either to compose a persuasive message advocating the use of condoms or to compose and deliver their message in front of a video camera. In addition, half of the participants in each group were made mindful of the times that they didn’t use condoms. After completing these tasks, participants were allowed to purchase condoms at a low price. What is the significance of their findings from this experiment? They demonstrated that
a.   before people will use condoms, they must experience dissonance.
b.   dissonance created by feelings of hypocrisy can change both attitudes and behaviors.
c.   although dissonance can bring about attitude change, behaviors are not affected.
d.   in some conditions, fear and anxiety can actually encourage condom use.
