In the research study based on cognitive dissonance, when participants later rated how enjoyable the boring task actually was the $1 group ended up deciding that the task was actually interesting because they had low external justification.

Cognitive dissonance is a phenomenon in which a person rejects new evidence that contradicts his pre-existing beliefs. It is the discomfort that a person feels when their actions do not correspond to their values or beliefs. It can also happen when a person holds two opposing beliefs at the same time.

The research was conducted to prove the existence of cognitive dissonance.  According to research studies, in the Festinger and Carlsmith's (1959) classic study on cognitive dissonance, participants who were paid $20 for doing a boring task tell the truth about the tedious nature of the work more than those who were paid $1 for doing the same task. Participants who were paid $1, on the other hand, rated the task as significantly more enjoyable and exciting than subjects who were paid $20.

Therefore, the $1 group ended up deciding that the task was actually interesting.
