Question: Which characterizes normative–reeducative strategies for change? A. Persuasion B. Coercion C. Rationality D. Best interests
A. Persuasion Rationale: The normative–reeducative strategy involves new information that directly influences people’s attitudes and behaviors through persuasion. Empiric–rational strategies are used to effect change based on the assumption that people are rational and when presented with information will adopt new practices that appear to be in their best interest. Power–coercive strategies use coercion based on fear to effect change.
