Huyen Trang · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : True, Explanation :  This is because Chris is more invested in making the best decision, therefore increasing the likelihood of experiencing postdecisional dissonance - a psychological discomfort or regret that may arise after making a decision. Mel, on the other hand, is less invested in making the perfect decision and may not experience as much discomfort if the choice is not optimal.
