Study Notes
Social Influence
- Social influence refers to how people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are affected by others.
- Key concepts like the door-in-the-face phenomenon and the foot-in-the-door phenomenon are examples of this.
Door-in-the-Face Phenomenon
- People are more likely to agree to a smaller request after refusing a larger one.
- This technique leverages the feeling of guilt or obligation from rejecting a large request.
- Example: Asking for $1000, then following up with a smaller request for $25.
Foot-in-the-Door Phenomenon
- People who agree to a small request are more likely to comply with a larger one later.
- This method builds on gradual compliance.
- Example: First asking for a quarter, followed by a dollar, and eventually a larger sum of money.
Persuasion
- Persuasion involves influencing others' beliefs and actions through communication.
- It employs two main routes: central and peripheral.
Central Route Persuasion
- This approach uses logical arguments and evidence to support a point.
- Focuses on providing facts and reviews.
Peripheral Route Persuasion
- This technique often uses less substantive methods to persuade.
- Making an irrelevant association to gain persuasion, like targeting emotions instead of facts.
- Example: Promoting a hamburger by showcasing models eating it rather than focusing on the product's qualities.
