Expect Selective Exposure
• The selective exposure theory is a concept that refers to individuals’ tendency to
favor information that reinforces pre-existing views while avoiding contradictory
information.
• Selective exposure operates by reinforcing beliefs rather than exposing
individuals to a diverse array of viewpoints.
• Perceived usefulness of information, perceived norm of fairness, and curiosity
regarding valuable information are three factors that can counteract selective
exposure.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech

Don't Expect Too Much
• The expected effectiveness of each speech depends on a number of factors, such
as the audience, venue, time allotted, and the speaker's experience.

• The expected quality of the delivery depends on the speaker's experience and
comfort. Even the most gifted speakers make mistakes, so expecting perfection
from a novice is unreasonable.
• Anxiety of public speaking sometimes is derived from the idea that the audience
expects perfection. In reality, most audiences are sympathetic and want the
speaker to succeed.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech

Employ Empathy and Sensitivity
• Appeals to empathy and sensitivity are called emotional appeals. Emotional
appeals seek to impart certain feelings in the audience so that they will act a
certain way. They can be much more powerful than logical arguments in some
situations.
• To deploy an emotional appeal you need to share carefully selected information
that naturally makes your audience feel a certain way.
• Audiences can sense inauthentic emotional appeals and react negatively because
they feel that they are being negatively. Poorly used emotional appeals can have

the exact opposite effect than intended.

Use Different Kinds of Appeals
• Aristotle defined 3 types of appeals: logos (evidential), pathos (emotional), and
ethos (based on moral standing). Logos and pathos are the two most common
contemporary categories.
• Evidential appeals (logical appeals, logos) are based entirely on evidence that is
then shown to cause a certain outcome based on rationality alone. This is the
type of appeal allowed in scientific research and in courts of law.
• Emotional appeals (pathos) attempt to cause the audience to feel certain
emotions in order to persuade them. Stories and metaphors are examples of

emotional appeals.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals

Defining Credibility
• Credibility is a composite of subjective and objective factors, so it relates to
feelings and opinions, as well as facts and evidence.

• The subjective component of a public speaker's credibility centers on the
speaker's self-presentation.
• The objective aspect of a public speaker's credibility is based on the speaker's
expertise.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals

Types and Elements of Credibility
• Personal experience in the workplace, at home, in a hobby, or volunteering
situations can bolster your credibility. You can support the validity of your
experience with testimonials and personal recommendations.
• Formal or informal training that relates to your topic can also support your
credibility.
• If you connect yourself and your message to credible people, your own credibility
will benefit from the association.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals

Building Credibility
• Establishing your good character is a crucial part of winning the audience's trust.
• For a public speaker, character is not only about being a good person or a law-

abiding citizen; speakers should also be looking out for the needs of their
listeners.
• To show your listeners that you care about their needs and interests, find
common ground with the audience, appeal to shared beliefs and goals, and
entertain potential objections.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals

Ethical Usage
• There are three types of appeal techniques in persuasive speaking: logos, pathos
and ethos. Ethos is focused on the credibility appeal, that is, a rhetorical appeal to
an audience based on the speaker's credibility.
• It is unethical to lie to your audience about who you are and what you bring to the
table in terms of experience, credibility and authority.
• When it comes to ethical usage of credibility appeals, stick to authenticity and
speaking honestly about who you are.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals

Defining Evidence
• Accurate, contextual, easily understandable evidence builds credibility to your
persuasive argument.

• The success or failure of an evidential appeal depends on how well the evidence
has been defined and laid out for the audience.
• Any information used as evidence must be complete enough that it strengthens
the appeal. Otherwise, weak evidence will only erode the argument.
• Name and define the evidence only as comprehensively as the scope of the
speech allows; dense supporting materials can actually confuse your audience by

overwhelming them with too much or too deeply defined evidence.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals

Deploying Evidence
• When crafting your speech, consider the following three areas: accuracy,
relevance, and thoroughness.

• Make sure that your evidence, be it facts, statistics, personal testimony, or other
pieces of information, comes from credible sources.
• Make sure your evidence is directly related to the points you are trying to make
while also anticipating competing evidence that may contradict your line of
reasoning.
• By thorough by fully explaining and defining your evidence to your audience, but

don't overwhelm them in the process.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals

Ethical Usage: Considering Other Viewpoints
• The same evidence can be interpreted differently by different people.
• Falsified evidence (intentionally or unintentionally) is unethical to use. Finding

false evidence that is due to statistical fallacy can only be found after deep
critique.
• If an argument can withstand the honest critique of an opponent and is based on
true and complete evidence, then the appeal is on sound ethical ground.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals

Different Lines of Reasoning
• Inductive reasoning, also known as induction, is a kind of reasoning that
constructs general propositions that are derived from specific examples.

• Inductive reasoning is probabilistic; it only states that, given the premises, the
conclusion is probable.
• One important aspect of inductive reasoning is associative reasoning: seeing or
noticing similarity among the different events or objects that you observe.
• Deductive reasoning is the process of reasoning from one or more general
statements, laws, or principles regarding what is known, in order to reach a

logically certain conclusion.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals

Deploying a Rational Appeal
• Deploying rational appeals focuses on reasoning and how you use evidence to
reason with your audience and invention, how arguments are formed based on
the classical proof of logos--rational appeal and logic.
• The burden of proof is on you the speaker to develop the right appeals for the
particular audience.
• When deploying deductive reasoning consider whether or not the audience is
likely to accept the general premise as valid and true before you attempt to
deduce other ideas or courses of action based on the general premise.

• When deploying inductive reasoning consider if you have observed or collected
enough evidence to draw a highly probable conclusion.

The mind
View on Boundless.com

• When deploying associative reasoning, you will want to make sure that the ideas
are indeed similar and that there are not obvious or outstanding differences which
would negate the association you propose.
• As you deploy a rational appeal consider if your reasoning is sound, whether the
audience will accept your evidence and reasoning, and what objections the
audience might raise so you can address the most significant points of
disagreement in your message.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals

Logical Fallacies
• "Formal" refers to the form of the argument. An argument that contains a formal
fallacy will always be invalid. However, even if a premise is not accurate, the
formal conclusion could still be valid if the rules of logic are followed.
• An informal fallacy is an error in reasoning that occurs due to a problem with the
content, rather than mere structure, of the argument and is often due to a
misconception or a presumption.
• Common Fallacy--hasty generalization: argues from limited examples or a special
case to a create general rule that applies to many cases.

• Common Fallacy--Popular sentiment or bandwagon appeal (argumentum ad
populum):—appeal to the majority; appeal to loyalty, "Everyone is doing it".

• Common Fallacy--If it comes before, it is the cause, post hoc ergo propter hoc:
believing that temporal succession implies a causal relation.
• Common Fallacy--Two events co-occurring is not causation, cum hoc ergo
propter hoc: believing that correlation implies a causal relation.

Defining Emotional Appeal
• Pathos represents an appeal to the emotions of an audience.
• An emotional appeal uses the manipulation of the emotions rather than valid logic

to win an argument.
• Emotional appeal is a<b> </b>logical fallacy, whereby a debater attempts to win
an argument by trying to get an emotional reaction from the opponent and
audience.
• In debating terms, emotional appeals are often effective as a rhetorical device, but
are generally considered naive or dishonest as a logical argument, since they

often appeal to the prejudices of listeners rather than offer a sober assessment of

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Emotional Appeals

Producing an Emotional Appeal
• Producing an emotional appeal requires an understanding of your audience and
what may strike their emotions the most.

• An effective way to create emotional appeal is to use words that have a lot of
pathos associated with them. Pathos is an emotional appeal used in rhetoric that
depicts certain emotional states.
• An example of a speech that is particularly effective at producing an emotional
response with its listeners is Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech.
The speech uses rhetoric to convey the point of equal opportunity for all people.

Ethical Usage
• Ethos (plural: ethe) is an appeal to the authority or honesty of the presenter.
• Emotional appeals will encourage the audience to identify with your message on a

visceral level, bypassing intellectual filters, such as skepticism and logic.
• It may be appealing to take a shortcut to making the audience sympathize with
your point of view. However, emotional appeals don't always hold up well after the
fact--so fortify your emotional appeal by engaging the intellect, too.

Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Motivational Appeals

Motivating Listeners
• We can divide our motives into two basic types: internal, intrinsic and external or
extrinsic motives. Some are more intrinsic than others, but basically a motive or
motivator is external if someone controls the means for you to satisfy the need or
desire.
• It is important to understand the current state of unfulfilled desires or need states
that exist in your audience in order to select the appropriate motives for your
appeal.
• You can use Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to select an unsatisfied need for your

motivational appeals. The lower level needs such as Physiological and Safety
needs will have to be satisfied before higher level needs, such as achievement or

self-actualization can be addressed.
• Monroe's Motivated Sequence is one method to organize your appeal to the
listeners. The five steps in order are: Get Attention, Explain Need, Satisfaction
(how your solution will met the need), Visualization (picture audience living with

solution in place), and Action (what audience can do now).

  • 4. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech Expect Selective Exposure • The selective exposure theory is a concept that refers to individuals’ tendency to favor information that reinforces pre-existing views while avoiding contradictory information. • Selective exposure operates by reinforcing beliefs rather than exposing individuals to a diverse array of viewpoints. • Perceived usefulness of information, perceived norm of fairness, and curiosity regarding valuable information are three factors that can counteract selective exposure.

  • 5. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech Don't Expect Too Much • The expected effectiveness of each speech depends on a number of factors, such as the audience, venue, time allotted, and the speaker's experience. • The expected quality of the delivery depends on the speaker's experience and comfort. Even the most gifted speakers make mistakes, so expecting perfection from a novice is unreasonable. • Anxiety of public speaking sometimes is derived from the idea that the audience expects perfection. In reality, most audiences are sympathetic and want the speaker to succeed. Martin Luther King, Jr. View on Boundless.com Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

  • 6. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech Employ Empathy and Sensitivity • Appeals to empathy and sensitivity are called emotional appeals. Emotional appeals seek to impart certain feelings in the audience so that they will act a certain way. They can be much more powerful than logical arguments in some situations. • To deploy an emotional appeal you need to share carefully selected information that naturally makes your audience feel a certain way. • Audiences can sense inauthentic emotional appeals and react negatively because they feel that they are being negatively. Poorly used emotional appeals can have the exact opposite effect than intended. Audience Emotion View on Boundless.com Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

  • 7. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Getting the Most out of a Persuasive Speech Use Different Kinds of Appeals • Aristotle defined 3 types of appeals: logos (evidential), pathos (emotional), and ethos (based on moral standing). Logos and pathos are the two most common contemporary categories. • Evidential appeals (logical appeals, logos) are based entirely on evidence that is then shown to cause a certain outcome based on rationality alone. This is the type of appeal allowed in scientific research and in courts of law. • Emotional appeals (pathos) attempt to cause the audience to feel certain emotions in order to persuade them. Stories and metaphors are examples of emotional appeals. Courtroom View on Boundless.com Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

  • 9. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals Defining Credibility • Credibility is a composite of subjective and objective factors, so it relates to feelings and opinions, as well as facts and evidence. • The subjective component of a public speaker's credibility centers on the speaker's self-presentation. • The objective aspect of a public speaker's credibility is based on the speaker's expertise.

  • 10. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals Types and Elements of Credibility • Personal experience in the workplace, at home, in a hobby, or volunteering situations can bolster your credibility. You can support the validity of your experience with testimonials and personal recommendations. • Formal or informal training that relates to your topic can also support your credibility. • If you connect yourself and your message to credible people, your own credibility will benefit from the association.

  • 11. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals Building Credibility • Establishing your good character is a crucial part of winning the audience's trust. • For a public speaker, character is not only about being a good person or a law- abiding citizen; speakers should also be looking out for the needs of their listeners. • To show your listeners that you care about their needs and interests, find common ground with the audience, appeal to shared beliefs and goals, and entertain potential objections.

  • 12. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Credibility Appeals Ethical Usage • There are three types of appeal techniques in persuasive speaking: logos, pathos and ethos. Ethos is focused on the credibility appeal, that is, a rhetorical appeal to an audience based on the speaker's credibility. • It is unethical to lie to your audience about who you are and what you bring to the table in terms of experience, credibility and authority. • When it comes to ethical usage of credibility appeals, stick to authenticity and speaking honestly about who you are.

  • 14. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals Defining Evidence • Accurate, contextual, easily understandable evidence builds credibility to your persuasive argument. • The success or failure of an evidential appeal depends on how well the evidence has been defined and laid out for the audience. • Any information used as evidence must be complete enough that it strengthens the appeal. Otherwise, weak evidence will only erode the argument. • Name and define the evidence only as comprehensively as the scope of the speech allows; dense supporting materials can actually confuse your audience by overwhelming them with too much or too deeply defined evidence.

  • 15. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals Deploying Evidence • When crafting your speech, consider the following three areas: accuracy, relevance, and thoroughness. • Make sure that your evidence, be it facts, statistics, personal testimony, or other pieces of information, comes from credible sources. • Make sure your evidence is directly related to the points you are trying to make while also anticipating competing evidence that may contradict your line of reasoning. • By thorough by fully explaining and defining your evidence to your audience, but don't overwhelm them in the process.

  • 16. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Evidential Appeals Ethical Usage: Considering Other Viewpoints • The same evidence can be interpreted differently by different people. • Falsified evidence (intentionally or unintentionally) is unethical to use. Finding false evidence that is due to statistical fallacy can only be found after deep critique. • If an argument can withstand the honest critique of an opponent and is based on true and complete evidence, then the appeal is on sound ethical ground.

  • 18. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals Different Lines of Reasoning • Inductive reasoning, also known as induction, is a kind of reasoning that constructs general propositions that are derived from specific examples. • Inductive reasoning is probabilistic; it only states that, given the premises, the conclusion is probable. • One important aspect of inductive reasoning is associative reasoning: seeing or noticing similarity among the different events or objects that you observe. • Deductive reasoning is the process of reasoning from one or more general statements, laws, or principles regarding what is known, in order to reach a logically certain conclusion.

  • 19. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals Deploying a Rational Appeal • Deploying rational appeals focuses on reasoning and how you use evidence to reason with your audience and invention, how arguments are formed based on the classical proof of logos--rational appeal and logic. • The burden of proof is on you the speaker to develop the right appeals for the particular audience. • When deploying deductive reasoning consider whether or not the audience is likely to accept the general premise as valid and true before you attempt to deduce other ideas or courses of action based on the general premise. • When deploying inductive reasoning consider if you have observed or collected enough evidence to draw a highly probable conclusion. The mind View on Boundless.com • When deploying associative reasoning, you will want to make sure that the ideas are indeed similar and that there are not obvious or outstanding differences which would negate the association you propose. • As you deploy a rational appeal consider if your reasoning is sound, whether the audience will accept your evidence and reasoning, and what objections the audience might raise so you can address the most significant points of disagreement in your message.

  • 20. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Logical Appeals Logical Fallacies • "Formal" refers to the form of the argument. An argument that contains a formal fallacy will always be invalid. However, even if a premise is not accurate, the formal conclusion could still be valid if the rules of logic are followed. • An informal fallacy is an error in reasoning that occurs due to a problem with the content, rather than mere structure, of the argument and is often due to a misconception or a presumption. • Common Fallacy--hasty generalization: argues from limited examples or a special case to a create general rule that applies to many cases. • Common Fallacy--Popular sentiment or bandwagon appeal (argumentum ad populum):—appeal to the majority; appeal to loyalty, "Everyone is doing it". Euler circles to illustrate categorical deduction View on Boundless.com • Common Fallacy--If it comes before, it is the cause, post hoc ergo propter hoc: believing that temporal succession implies a causal relation. • Common Fallacy--Two events co-occurring is not causation, cum hoc ergo propter hoc: believing that correlation implies a causal relation.

  • 22. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Emotional Appeals Defining Emotional Appeal • Pathos represents an appeal to the emotions of an audience. • An emotional appeal uses the manipulation of the emotions rather than valid logic to win an argument. • Emotional appeal is a<b> </b>logical fallacy, whereby a debater attempts to win an argument by trying to get an emotional reaction from the opponent and audience. • In debating terms, emotional appeals are often effective as a rhetorical device, but are generally considered naive or dishonest as a logical argument, since they often appeal to the prejudices of listeners rather than offer a sober assessment of A father with his children a situation.

  • 23. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Emotional Appeals Producing an Emotional Appeal • Producing an emotional appeal requires an understanding of your audience and what may strike their emotions the most. • An effective way to create emotional appeal is to use words that have a lot of pathos associated with them. Pathos is an emotional appeal used in rhetoric that depicts certain emotional states. • An example of a speech that is particularly effective at producing an emotional response with its listeners is Martin Luther King, Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech. The speech uses rhetoric to convey the point of equal opportunity for all people. Martin Luther King, Jr. View on Boundless.com Free to share, print, make copies and changes.

  • 24. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Emotional Appeals Ethical Usage • Ethos (plural: ethe) is an appeal to the authority or honesty of the presenter. • Emotional appeals will encourage the audience to identify with your message on a visceral level, bypassing intellectual filters, such as skepticism and logic. • It may be appealing to take a shortcut to making the audience sympathize with your point of view. However, emotional appeals don't always hold up well after the fact--so fortify your emotional appeal by engaging the intellect, too.

  • 26. Methods of Persuasive Speaking > Motivational Appeals Motivating Listeners • We can divide our motives into two basic types: internal, intrinsic and external or extrinsic motives. Some are more intrinsic than others, but basically a motive or motivator is external if someone controls the means for you to satisfy the need or desire. • It is important to understand the current state of unfulfilled desires or need states that exist in your audience in order to select the appropriate motives for your appeal. • You can use Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs to select an unsatisfied need for your motivational appeals. The lower level needs such as Physiological and Safety needs will have to be satisfied before higher level needs, such as achievement or Hierarchy of Needs View on Boundless.com self-actualization can be addressed. • Monroe's Motivated Sequence is one method to organize your appeal to the listeners. The five steps in order are: Get Attention, Explain Need, Satisfaction (how your solution will met the need), Visualization (picture audience living with solution in place), and Action (what audience can do now).
