Abstract

The persuasion literature has deep roots including a rhetorical tradition dating to the ancient Greeks (Leff & Procario, 1985) and an attitude change tradition dating to the mid 1900s (Dillard & Pfau, 2002). Both traditions typically focus on persuasion in public and mass communication contexts, such as within social movements or health communication campaigns.
