PROCESS VERSUS VARIANCE RESEARCH
Process research is defined as a type of datagathering and analysis that seeks to determine thesequence of a set of events over time. (qualitativemethods)
Variance research is a type of data gathering andanalysis that consists of determining thecovariances (or correlations) among a set ofvariables, but not their time order. (quantitativeresearch method)

THE HIERARCHY-OF-EFFECTS
The basic notion of a hierarchy of communicationeffects is that an individual usually must passfrom knowledge change to overt behavior changein a cumulative sequence of stages that aregenerally parallel to the stages in the innovation-decision process.

COMMUNICATION CHANNELS BY STAGESOF THE INNOVATION-DECISION PROCESS
Different communication channels play differentroles at each stage in the innovation-decisionprocess.
Source of message: an individual or an institutionthat originates a message.
A channel is the means by which a message getsfrom the source to the receiver.

Reach a large audience rapidly
Create knowledge and spread information
Change weekly held attitudes

WHAT CAN INTERPERSONALCOMMUNICATION CHANNELS DO BEST?
Provide a two-way exchange of information.
Persuade an individual to form or to change astrongly held attitude.

MASS MEDIA VERSUS INTERPERSONALCHANNELS
Generalization 5-13: mass media channels arerelatively more important at the knowledge stage,and interpersonal channels are relatively moreimportant at the persuasion stage in the innovation-decision process.

THE INNOVATION-DECISION PERIOD
The innovation-decision period is the length of timerequired for an individual or organization to passthrough the innovation-decision process.

THE RATE OF AWARENESS-KNOWLEDGE ANDRATE OF ADOPTION
Most change agents wish to speed up the process bywhich innovations are adopted:
1. To communicate information about new ideas morerapidly or more adequately so that knowledge iscreated at an earlier date.
2. To shorten the amount of time required for theinnovation-decision after an individual is aware ofa new idea.
Generalization 5-17: the rate of awareness-knowledgefor an innovation is more rapid than its rate ofadoption.

THE LENGTH OF THE INNOVATION-DECISION PERIOD BY ADOPTER CATEGORY
Generalization 5-18: earlier adopters have ashorter innovation-decision period than do lateradopters.

WHY DO INNOVATORS REQUIRE A SHORTERINNOVATION-DECISION PERIOD?
Innovators have more favorable attitudes toward new ideasand so communication messages about innovations face lessresistance.
Innovators may also possess a type of mental ability thatbetter enables them to cope with uncertainty and to dealwith abstractions.
Innovators may have a shorter innovation-decision periodbecause:
1. They utilize more technically accurate sources andchannels about innovations, such as direct contact withscientists.
2. They place higher credibility in these sources than doesthe average individual

HOW THE INTERNET IS CHANGING THEINNOVATION-DECISION PROCESS
The internet allows people to reach many otherpeople in a one-to-many process (similar to that ofthe mass media), but e-mail messages are likeinterpersonal communication in that they canpersonalized to the individual.
For certain innovations, diffusion via the Internetgreatly speeds up an innovation’s rate of adoption.(e.g., hotmail, promotional messages)
The world in which we live today is a different onethan that of sixty years ago, when study of thediffusion process began.
