textbookSocial psychologists are interested in
who we are. Our sense of self is affected by what
we know about the self and by the people around
us. The self is a powerful force. The self
affects how we feel, what we think we can do, and
what we in fact do. (pg. 32).

the following assignment, go to this
week's Assignment link in the left
navigation. Persuasion Who, What, To WhomAs
we explore persuasion, we can divide the
persuasive communication into three parts the
communicator, the message, and the audience.
First, we will deal with what characteristics of
persuaders make people more likely to be
persuaded. Next, we will think about
characteristics of the message that lead people
to change. Finally, we will explore what
characteristics of the audience can lead them to
be persuaded. (Feenstra, 2011, p. 88).

rsuasion Techniques Table 8.1 in your textbook
highlights various techniques used in persuasive
messaging, including foot-in-the door, low-ball,
door-in-the face, reciprocity, etc.  After
examining all the techniques, choose three to
address in your discussion. For each of the
three, describe the processes involved, and
explain why such techniques are successful in
persuading certain audiences, but are likely to
fail with others. In addition, examine the
overall resistance to persuasion. Although they
may be undesirable, are we more vulnerable to
these messages than we think?

www.psy301master.com   Obedience and
Conformity By most definitions, if we are
persuaded by an individual, we are said to be
obedient to that individual. If we are persuaded
by a group, we are said to have conformed to that
groups objectives. Compare and contrast the core
differences between these two concepts. In what
ways do group and individual persuasion
techniques differ? As social beings, why are we
naturally prone to conformity and obedience?

we view ourselves and others, how we interact
with others, how we influence others, and how we
act when we are part of a group. Given the amount
of time each of us spend thinking about and

day, much of our lives are spent with the subject
matter of social psychology. (Feenstra, 2011,
