According to the research on cognitive dissonance, people are more likely to experience dissonance when making a decision that has significant consequences or conflicts with their beliefs or values. In this scenario, Min is choosing a gift for her mother, which may be a decision that has more significant consequences and therefore more likely to cause cognitive dissonance compared to Tanja who is not directly involved in the decision.
