Persuasion

This graduate seminar will explore the various theoretical frameworks used by communication researchers across a range of contexts. Theories placing an emphasis on how messages impact the persuasion process will be reviewed. Moreover, theories that address how individuals cognitively and emotionally process these messages will be examined. By the end of the semester, students will have a greater understanding of numerous persuasion theories as well as how to apply these frameworks into their own studies of persuasion.

Section Title:
Comm & Invisible Illness
Section Info:
This course examines how people in personal and patient-provider relationships experience, understand, and respond to invisible illness. We will draw on literatures from Communication, Psychology, Sociology, Nursing, and Medicine to understand how processes such as uncertainty management, disclosure, coping, and shared decision making are impacted when illnesses have few external markers as “proof” of their existence. Topics include but are not limited to: health beliefs and knowledge, stigma, identity, and disparities.

Section Title:
Language, Culture & Identity
Section Info:
We will discuss how people use language in ways that signal a range of interactional and socio-cultural meanings. We will explore a number of classic and contemporary approaches that address how language use both seems to “reflect” and create interpersonal and sociocultural contexts.More specifically, we will cover a range of approaches to the study of the relationships between language use and processes of social identification, often understood in terms of seemingly more durable, broader-level rubrics, such as ethnicity, race, class, gender, sexuality, the nation-state, diaspora, generation, etc. Although no previous background is required for this course, students must be willing, however, to read, synthesize, and discuss material from a range of disciplines.

Section Title:
Collaboration & Teams
Section Info:
This course explores how communication and management scholars have examined the concept of “collaboration” within and around organizations. Our discussion will focus on how differing operationalizations of this concept guide scholarly inquiry, and toward identifying opportunities for productive scholarly attention at the interfaces between dominant approaches in collaboration research.
