Why this is here
The exchange cited it at turn U13 for the action-based model of dissonance: conflict between action-relevant cognitions is aversive because it obstructs acting, and reducing it serves effective action. The abstract matches. The record holds an earlier dissonance-adjacent study, Jecker & Landy on liking after doing a favour (LIT-1419).
