The existence of interpersonal communication is a given in persuasion research. Although one could conceivably be persuaded by the facts alone (without the intervention of a source), that would generally be characterized as learning rather than persuasion. The only controversial aspect of the above definition is the inclusion of the word intentional. It seems to this writer that receivers who overhear an argument and find it convincing have been persuaded, even though the source never intended to convince them, however, this quibble with the definition need not affect its adoption here. Which, verifies the studies of effectiveness and risk with attempting to use humor with persuasion,
The theory also says that capacity limitation was unaffected, which means that at the same time, other performances would not be affected. This theory was to do with controlled and automatic processing, and stated that the former was slow and the latter; fast, and thus differentiated between the two. The theory also stated that automatic processing was unaffected
Kant sees this as similar to making moral decisions as the moral choice is not always the desired choice and therefore not in your self interest. This is why Kant uses his ‘categorical imperative’ as it simply is “I must do ‘x’” because there is no possibility of conflicting with self interest. The categorical imperative also has two parts; universal law and ends and means. This determines if the action you are considering to
Events in the past do not have to change the future. Doing future events keenly may avoid a repeat of the past. Narrating, past events and recalling those stops the past from haunting the involved because they have honored it (Estelle 12-17). The past has no effect on the future, but it may influence it in some way. Changing the past is possible by altering the memory of it.
Christman states that if a desire is altered or eliminated forcefully (as a result of some interference), the subject does not experience an increase in freedom. He argues that only those changes in desire that take place in a self-conscious, rational manner will
(2) The agent may not positively will the bad effect but may merely permit it. If he could attain the good effect without the bad effect, he should do so. The bad effect is sometimes said to be indirectly voluntary. (3) The good effect must flow from the action at least as immediately (in the order of causality, though not necessarily in the order of time) as the bad effect. In other words, the good effect must be produced directly by the action, not by the bad effect.
Epictetus offers his famous distinction between things that do not depend on us (ie our body, fame, power …) and things that depend on us (our judgments about things, our desires, our dislikes …). To be free is to focus on the things that depend on us, and do not give importance to those that do not depend on us. Indeed, they do not depend on our own will, but the chance of external circumstances, for example, fame to which we aspire does not depend entirely on our talent, but also those who will come and bother discover this talent. In this type of action, we do not have total power, we are not only active cause and determining the success of our action. As a result, we are exposed to setbacks or disappointments that will make us unhappy.
Hard determinism is another concept on free will which views that determinism is true, and it is incompatible with free will, thus free will does not exist (Honderich 11). In this paper, we will look deeply into the concept of compatibilism. Compatibilists or soft determinists maintain and believe that determinism is well compatible with free will. Compatibilists thus define "free will" in a way that enables it to co-exist
Compatibilism, also referred to as soft determinism, is “the view that all events, including human actions, are caused. However, we can consider human actions free if they are the result of internal motivations, not the product of external influences or constraints” (Chaffee 142). While compatibilists
So, to sum up freedom most pertains/explains in to the person or people itself. Independence, on the other hand, means a freedom with rules and regulations it pertains for the country. It is being free but always entails .great responsibilities. You’ll need to think twice for every action you want to do unlike in freedom you yourself will create your own limitations and just do what you want. Independence means standing by your own without depending onto others, you must be on yourself and should not rely to someone’s decision, support/influence.
