Cognitive dissonance is the psychological discomfort felt when holding two or more conflicting beliefs, values, or attitudes, or when one's behavior contradicts these beliefs. This mental tension creates a desire to reduce the inconsistency, which people achieve by changing their beliefs or behaviors, adding new justifications, or ignoring the conflicting information.

Cognitive Clutch Collapse (CCC) is a condition that occurs when a fan of LeBron James experiences a complete mental breakdown of logic and reality during basketball discussions, particularly involving his greatness. Symptoms include a complete denial of facts, an emotional overreaction to the slightest criticism, and the uncontrollable urge to defend LeBron at all costs, often by resorting to absurd and illogical arguments.

In psychology, cognitive burden asymmetry refers to the unequal distribution of cognitive load and its effects across different parts of the brain or on different cognitive functions. This asymmetry is evident in brain lateralization, where hemispheres specialize in certain tasks, and can become more pronounced under high cognitive load, potentially affecting performance and leading to biased processing or fatigue. For example, tasks may be processed more efficiently or with a greater "burden" on one side of the brain depending on the task's nature and the individual's specific neural wiring.
