Hall and Closson studied psychoanalytic judgments, which produced a situation roughly similar to one described by Myers: in both studies, contrary results would be predicted by reinforcement and cognitive dissonance views. Myers found that most psychologists preferred the reinforcement prediction, which was validated by the results. We found that most psychologists preferred the reinforcement prediction for the Hall and Closson data as well but results validated cognitive dissonance
