Answer 1

Justification of effort

Step-by-step explanation:

Justification of effort is a term that refers to a situation where an individual has struggled for something that has a much lower value than the effort made, but the individual believes that all the effort was worth it because the result was great when In fact, the effort was very sacrificing and the result is not that satisfactory. We can see an example of justification of effort in Cersei's case, where she had to undergo humiliating activities that were bad for her physical and moral integrity to enter a fellowship. When she finally enters the fellowship, she believes that all the sacrificing effort paid off, when in fact the fellowship was not that valuable compared to the sacrificial effort she had to make.
