Still Waters Posted April 2, 2018 #1 Share Posted April 2, 2018 We intuitively use more emotional language to enhance our powers of persuasion, according to new research. The research shows that people tend toward appeals that aren't simply more positive or negative but are infused with emotionality, even when they're trying to sway an audience that may not be receptive to such language. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2018/04/180402085846.htm 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I'mConvinced Posted April 2, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Logic and emotion work hand in hand as part of the decision making process. It's no surprise then that emotive language can sway even the most logical of thinkers. Nice to see the data back this up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
