In the study conducted by Elliot Aronson and colleagues, they used the technique of hypocrisy to convince university students to turn off water while soaping up in a shower room. This technique involved asking students to sign a poster pledging to conserve water, and then reminding them of their commitment when they failed to follow through on their promise. This caused the students to feel hypocritical and increased their willingness to conserve water in the future. Therefore, option C is the best choice.
