Which of the following statements does not reflect a likely response to the conflict between her attitude and her behavior? "This speeding is irresponsible. From now on I am observing the speed limits." "It's wrong to break even minor laws, but I'll probably keep speeding anyway." "I've got to drive fast sometimes, otherwise I will not make all my deliveries and I'll lose clients." "It's not a problem that I speed a little bit; it's not much over the limit, and everyone else speeds some."

Answer:

The following statement does not reflect a likely response to the conflict between Jo’s attitude and her behavior - "It's wrong to break even minor laws, but I'll probably keep speeding anyway."

Explanation:

The conflict between Jo’s attitude and her behavior regarding breaking speed limits would lead to cognitive dissonance and thus a need to justify her behavior.

All three remaining statements would help her to reduce cognitive dissonance by finding explanation to her behavior, while the given statement does not correspond to her belief that she is a law-abiding citizen. Being law-abiding means taking the laws and their violation seriously. That is why individuals who sometimes violate laws feel bad about it and seek to justify what they do.
