Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hazing rituals often require extreme effort, humiliation, and obedience to the group, leading to an experience of cognitive dissonance. As a result, individuals tend to justify their actions and beliefs by emphasizing the importance of the group and their membership in it, even if it means enduring painful or traumatic experiences. This phenomenon is known as effort justification. Hazing rituals leverage this concept to encourage group loyalty and compliance.
