Abstract

A constraint satisfaction network model simulated cognitive 
dissonance data from the insufficient justification and free choice 
paradigms. The networks captured the psychological regularities in 
both paradigms. In the case of free choice, the model fit the human 
data better than did cognitive dissonance theory. 

This paper will be presented at the Fourteenth Annual Conference of 
the Cognitive Science Society, Indiana University, 1992.
