Yes, it can work that work that way to. I really like the fact that you have such intelectual integrity. I was thinking about those studies and it really opens a pandoras box. If we are prone to believe what we want inspight of the evidence then all of Science is in jepordy of being screwwed by our preconceived notions. Even the studies that establish cognative dissonance cant really be trusted. That's where science's checking mechanisms come in with independent repeatability, peer review and such to establish objectivity as well as the methodology used in assessment of the data such as using statistical analysis. The theory has been pretty well studied over the decades and has been validated independently many times by many researchers.
