However, after modifying the experimental procedure so that more dissonance was thought to be induced (i.e., making choice more important and meaningful), they found a marginally significant difference between preference change in the Rate-Choose-Rate condition and that in the Rate-Rate-Choose condition ( p = 0.06; Chen and Risen, 2010 ), suggesting that the mere act of making a choice seems to have an effect on preference over and above the artifact.
