Dr Aaron Balick – The Strongest Persuader: You.
When thinking about online persuasion, we generally think of it as marketers persuading consumers. We often forget that we are our own biggest persuaders, and persuade ourselves about ourselves in particular ways online. As human beings we are heavily invested in our own identities, and we manage this investment in a particular way online, especially via social networking sites.
Dr Balick will be using psychological models to understand how our identities are manifested online, and the ways in which we may unconsciously persuade ourselves more about our ideal visions of ourselves or how we’d like to be seen, than who we really are.
