Book Social Influence  Power  and Multimodal Communication

Download or read book Social Influence Power and Multimodal Communication written by Isabella Poggi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Influence, Power, and Multimodal Communication reveals how democratic leaders and dictators exploit multimodal communication to convince or seduce their audiences, using words, voice, gesture, face, gaze, and posture to boast about their merits or insult and ridicule rivals. Poggi and D'Errico explore questions such as what is charisma, and how do we perceive it in a leader? And how do politicians display their dominance over opponents, or discredit them in TV debates and social media? Starting from a sociocognitive model of social interaction, observational studies reveal the rhetoric of words, hands, and faces, explaining how to see beyond their literal meanings, while experimental studies test their uses and persuasive effects. The authors affirm that multimodality helps others to influence us through displays of dominance, and by undermining our power through comments, insults, irony, ridicule, and parody. The devices of social influence and its multimodal management are illuminated, giving readers insight into how people influence others’ lives by using body language and verbal communication, either explicitly or in subtle but inexorable ways. This fascinating text is a superb resource for students of psychology, communication, pragmatics, and political sciences, as well as for school teachers, politicians, spin doctors, active citizenship workers, and anyone seeking to understand how communicative power is managed, both in politics and everyday social contexts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a comprehensive analysis of research and theory on verbal communication and social influence. It examines a variety of empirical studies, theoretical positions, methodological matters and substantive issues pertaining to the use of language for generating influence and control. It moves from the basic concept of monological speech and the achievement of power to the increasingly complex and subtle cases of conversational control and linguistic depoliticization. Topics such as linguistic signs of power, language as a resource for creating power and social causes of verbal power are examined in contexts ranging from informal conversations to newspaper headlines. The research scrutinized ranges from qualitative

Book Communication and Social Influence Processes

Download or read book Communication and Social Influence Processes written by Charles R. Berger and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication and Social Influence Processes examines the relationships between verbal and nonverbal communicative activity and social influence processes in a new light. The authors of the eight essays contained in this work have abandoned the narrow constraints of the standard experimental paradigm, and move toward redefining the relationships between communication and social influence processes. This volume does not look at the social influence venue as one in which a single source disseminates a message to an audience -- as an individual presenting a public speech. Instead, social influence is viewed from a broad array of perspectives, including individual-level processes like cognition, language, and personality; interaction-based processes like deception, compliance-gaining, and social exchange; and macro social network interactions.

Book Visual and Multimodal Communication

Download or read book Visual and Multimodal Communication written by Charles Forceville and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-09 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Successful communication requires optimal relevance to a target audience. Relevance theory (RT) provides an excellent model based on this insight, but the impact of the theory has until now been restricted due to an almost exclusive focus on spoken face-to-face communication. Visual and Multimodal Communication: Applying the Relevance Principle is the first book to systematically demonstrate how RT can fulfill its promise to develop into an inclusive theory of communication. In this book, Charles Forceville refines and adapts RT's original claims to show its applicability to static visuals and multimodal discourses in popular culture genres. Using colorful examples, he explains how RT can be expanded and adapted to accommodate mass-communicative visual and visual-plus-verbal messages. Forceville addresses issues such as the difference between drawing prospective addressees' attention to a message and persuading them to accept it; the thorny continuum from implicit to explicit information; and the role of genre. Case studies of pictograms, advertisements, cartoons, and comics provide contemporary and accessible examples of the importance of genre and of how the RT model can be connected to other approaches. By expanding the application of relevance theory to include mass-communicative messages, Visual and Multimodal Communication reintroduces a central framework of cognitive linguistics and pragmatics to a new audience and paves the way for an inclusive theory of communication.

Book The Psychology of Social Influence

Download or read book The Psychology of Social Influence written by Gordon Sammut and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume brings together the full range of modalities of social influence - from crowding, leadership, and norm formation to resistance and mass mediation - to set out a challenge-and-response 'cyclone' model. The authors use real-world examples to ground this model and review each modality of social influence in depth. A 'periodic table of social influence' is constructed that characterises and compares exercises of influence in practical terms. The wider implications of social influence are considered, such as how each exercise of a single modality stimulates responses from other modalities and how any everyday process is likely to arise from a mix of influences. The book demonstrates that different modalities of social influence are tactics that defend, question, and develop 'common sense' over time and offers advice to those studying in political and social movements, social change, and management.

Book SOCIAL INFLUENCE AND POWER

Download or read book SOCIAL INFLUENCE AND POWER written by Bertram H. Raven and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social influence is defined here as change in a person's cognition, attitude, or behavior, which has its origin in another person or group. The investigators are interested in such phenomena as: The policeman influences the motorist to move his car; the teacher influences the student to use a specified method in solving a mathematical problem; the mother influences her child to avoid playing in the street; the flying saucer fancier influences his friend to 'see' a flying saucer in a fuzzy cloud formation. Others have considered these situations in terms of 'imitation, ' 'suggestion, ' 'persuasion, ' or 'contagion.' The word 'power' is used to mean potential influence--or, conversely, influence is kinetic power. This paper develops further an approach to the analysis of social influence and power which was first presented in a joint paper with J.R.P. French, Jr. (French and Raven, 1959). A number of studies, many of which grew out of other theoretical orientations, are presented to illustrate the usefulness of the present conceptualization. (Author).
