What is Persuasion? The art of persuasion is the art of finding the best available means of moving a specific audience in a specific situation to a specific decision
20
Persuasion: The Message Repeated Exposure: Repeated exposure to people and things (such as politicians and classical music) enhances their appeal. Emotional Appeal: Attempts to influence behavior on the basis of feelings that are aroused instead of rational analysis of the issues. Counter-arguments:: People tend to believe arguments that run counter to the vested interests of the communicator.
21
The Persuasion Triangle Subject (Logos) (Logic) Presenter (Ethos) (personal credibility) Audience (Pathos) (emotions)
22
Persuasion in the Real World Presenter Subject Audience Your Needs & Interests Their Needs & Interests Your Program’s Needs & Accomplishments
23
Logos (logic) Support your reasons with proof. –Facts - can be proven. –Expert opinions or quotations –Definitions - statement of meaning of word or phrase –Statistics - offer scientific support –Examples - powerful illustrations –Anecdote - incident, often based on writer's personal experiences –Present opposition - and give reasons and evidence to prove the opposition wrong
24
Faulty Logic 1.Causal : making a connection b/c one event follows another. 2.Bandwagon: suggesting that b/c everyone believes something or does something, it must be valid, accurate, or effective. EX: Everybody knows that taxes are too high. 3.Either-or: oversimplifying an issue as offering only 2 choices. 4.Hasty Generalization: reaching a conclusion w/o adequate supporting evidence. 5.Personal Attack: name-calling 6.Red Herring: irrelevant facts or information used to distract from the issue. 7.Appeal to Misplaced Authority: using someone w/o the appropriate credentials or expertise to endorse an idea or produc 8.Non Sequitur: an idea or logic that doesn’t follow the previous idea or conclusion.
25
Ethos (personal credibility) convince your audience that you are fair, honest, and well informed. They will then trust your values and intentions. Citing your sources will help this area. Honesty: Competency: Meaning capable of getting the job done. Energy: Through non verbals like eye contact and gestures, and a strong voice, a speaker will come across as charismatic. How can you gain credibility? 1.Dress up to show you’re serious 2.Be prepared and organized 3.Do your research and use it in your speech 4.Eye contact 5.Relate to your audience (in your speech)
26
Pathos (emotions) a carefully reasoned argument will be strengthened by an emotional appeal, especially love, anger, disgust, fear, compassion, and patriotism. * “ feeling ” the speech EX: If you loved me you would do this. EX: Persuading lower gas prices might want some anger in the current prices or the frustration in nothing being done about it. EX: Ads that try to get you to sponsor a child.
