COMMUNICATION Theory 3100 Portfolio:

Below are 6 different assignments I have completed and published about Leon Festinger’s Cognitive Dissonance theory in relation to communication and how it can be used to explain, predict, and control peoples’ behaviors. The six assignments go as follows: a summary of the original article by Leon Festinger, an annotated bibliography of works about Cognitive Dissonance, online apps and explanations of their relation to cognitive dissonance, an infographic I designed about Cognitive Dissonance, examples of this theory in News and Social Media, and examples of Cognitive Dissonance Theory throughout Pop Culture!

Enjoy reading about Cognitive Dissonance!
