"Aesthetic judgments of beauty of 49 novel, formal graphic patterns were collected from non-artist participants. In the framework of Social Judgment Theory (Hammond et al., 1975), the data were subjected to individual Judgment Analyses deriving quantitative paramorphic models of the judgment processes. These models reflected the individual's strategy of aesthetic judgment, cue use, and degree of linear judgment capture, largely converging with participants' verbal reports of judgment strategies. A group model was constructed using the same method applied to group-average rating data. Filtering out individual judgment strategies, the group-level analysis showed that larger arrangements of the basic element, with a tendency towards forming a square itself, while not being vertically dominant, were preferred overall (Jacobsen, 2004).

AN INVENTED AD
In the invention of an advertisement that would work with the Social Judgment Theory one could put together an advertisement that would promote the joining of the military. Because of the nation's current concerns about the war in Iraq anything regarding war or the Middle East within the ad would be a bad idea as it would go directly to the rejection latitudes of those who read it (Olson, 1991). It would be better to promote the fact that the military can help someone obtain education through their service. This would go directly to the reader acceptance latitude area.
CONCLUSION
The Social Judgment Theory provides a framework from which persuasion techniques and responses can be clearly understood. In the world of advertising it is important to understand the constructs of the theory so that one can be sure to target acceptance latitude...

Persuasion in Television Advertisements Advertising and marketing specialists frequently use specialized techniques to communicate with audiences by appealing to a specific type of customer and helping a brand or product to be memorable or appealing. Advertisements frequently accomplish this by using spokespeople, slogans, or visual symbols or displays that grab the intended audience's attention and appeal to the customer's curiosity, sense of ascetics or humor. This paper will assess two such
Simulation – Role playing exercise negotiation skills assessment Role Playing Exercise Introduction Relationships are crucial in any negotiation—in fact they are the bedrock of negotiation, as there can be no negotiation without first establishing the foundation of relationship. The relationship need not be identical to friendship, but it must be workable and rooted in respect. In the role playing exercise “Lost at Sea,” the items listed in Appendix A were ranked in order
This can be a difficult balance to attain though. It proceeds from the view that persuasive communication is only partially defined by the delivery of a message. An equally significant part of this, at least when contextualized by interpersonal forms of communication, is the effectiveness with which one appears to have received communicated ideas and information from those who will receive the message in question. Indeed, the ability to establish
Once the presenter has understood the type of audience that is before him, he will be able to effectively handle the entire audience and make the presentation a success.
