19
Q

What’s the difference between ELM and Chaiken’s heuristic-systematic model

A
  • central = systematic, peripheral = heuristic
  • two routes can be taken SIMULTANEOUSLY
  • two routes can interact
20
Q

Describe Kahneman’s model

A
  • System 1 (intuitively formed attitudes) –> intuitive and quick information processing
  • System 2 (reasoned formed attitudes) –> analytical and slow information processing
21
Q

evaluative conditioning

A

Weak attitudes take a much longer time to become ‘anchored’ in our memory. But, if a positive attitude is generated repeatedly, it might more likely be anchored

22
Q

4 ways to measure attitudes

A
  1. likert scale
  2. semantic differential
  3. expectancy value models (TBP)
  4. implicit measures
23
Q

Describe the 2 implicit attitude measures

A
  1. evaluative priming
    Seeing or hearing one positive word or image makes it easier to identify other positive words in that category and more difficult to identify negative ones, and vice versa
  2. implicit association test
    Compares how quickly people are able to categorize specific attitude objects when the categories are coupled with other words or terms (either positive or negative)
24
Q

Define persuasion

A

When our attitudes and behavior are swayed by arguments

25
Q

What is rhetoric concerned with

A

Rhetoric is concerned with the structure of an argument and the figures of speech used to change other people’s minds. How we reach conclusions through logical reasoning?

26
Q

Deductive arguments

A

Deductive arguments follow a ‘top-down’ structure, starting out with a more general statement from which a more specific, logical conclusion is derived

27
Q

When do we call an argument valid?

A

When the conclusion MUST be true IF the premises are true

Note: untrue premises don’t make the argument itself invalid

28
Q

When do we have a sound argument?

A

If the premises are TRUE and our argument is valid

Note: just because an argument is valid, does not mean that the argument is sound

29
Q

Modus ponens

A

If P then Q. P. Therefore Q.

30
Q

Modus tollens

A

If P then Q. Not-Q. Therefore Not-P.

31
Q

Inductive arguments

A

Inductive arguments follow a ‘bottom-up’ structure, starting out with statements that describe a specific situation from which a more general conclusion can be drawn

32
Q

Can inductive arguments be valid and strong/weak?

A
  • Not valid, because there will always be exceptions
  • Inductive arguments can be strong or weak. They are strong when the conclusion that follows the premises is highly likely to be true
33
Q

Primacy and recency effect

A
  • the first argument that is posed has the greatest effect (recency effect)
  • works best when 2 arguments are presented in quick succession
  • the last argument that is posed has the greatest effect (recency effect)
  • works best if we hear a second argument much later then the first
34
Q

rhetorical question + 3 persuasive characteristics

A

The answer is already within the question, implicitly

1) They make us think because we have a strong innate tendency to answer the questions put to us
2) Many people also gain pleasure from ‘solving’ a rhetorical question, particularly if phrased ironically
