Strategic Communication
•. . . is based on a combination of facts, ideas, and theories integrated by a visionary design to achieve verifiable objectives by affecting the most likely sources and barriers to behavioral change with the active participation of stakeholders and beneficiaries.

Factors Influencing Behavior
•LIST OF FACTORS, NO MODEL
•1991: Seminar: Fishbein, Bandura, Triandis,
Kanfer, Becker, Middlestadt
1. Intentions to perform the behavior
2. Environmental contraints preventing the behavior
3. Skills necessary to perform the behavior
4. Behavioral beliefs and perceived consequences (attitudes)
5. Perceived normative pressure
6. Self-image: self-standards and sanctions
7. Emotional reactions
8. Self-efficacy (perceived capability and confidence)
NO CONSENSUS REGARDING A CAUSAL MODEL LINKING THESE FACTORS TO BEHAVIOR

Ideation
. . . refers to new ways of thinking and the diffusion of those ways of thinking by means of social interaction in local, culturally homogeneous communities.
Source: DEMOGRAPHYCleland & Wilson, 1987
![Page 7: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The likelihood of someone adopting and sustaining a new behavior is much higher when she or he:
• has gained sufficient knowledge about it,• has developed a positive attitude towards it, • has talked to others about it, and• feels good about doing it.
How is ideation related to communication and behavior change?

CUMULATIVE RISK ANALYSIS
These elements affect behavior in much the same way that risk factors affect the probability of getting a disease:
The greater the number of factors that apply to an individual, the greater the likelihood that he/she will get the disease.
![Page 19: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Each one of these influences is strongly related to adoption and continuation of modern contraceptive use. When they are summed into a combined index, they are highly predictive of contraceptive behavior.
![Page 20: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
The more ideational elements that apply to someone, the greater theprobability that they will adopt a
health behavior.
In Tanzania, from only 0.5% modern method use for women with no ideational elements to 46.1% for women with all six.

Development Communication
• What is the role of communication in national development?
• Two competing paradigms:• Information transfer (one-way/vertical) process (from experts/north to unskillful/south)• Participatory (horizontal) communication (emphasis in dialogue) among community members
• New theoretical approaches, participatory communication and communicativeaction
![Page 23: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
First decade of development (1960’s)
• Urbanization andindustrialization economic growth.
• Focus on capital-intensive technology, undermining of agriculture.
• Focus on individual; traditional attitudes and behavior constrain development.
• Literacy and mass media to help masses break free of traditional views.
Modernization theory the dominant paradigm.
![Page 24: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
First decade of development (1960’s)
• The Diffusion of Innovations sets the stage (Rogers, 1962)
• Persuasive messages will have direct and uniform impact on people, … and will produce a climate of acceptance of the innovation
• Mass media seen as “magic” multipliersof development benefits
The Bullet Theory of Communication.

Second decade of development (1970’s)
• Modernization increased concentration of income and power
• Shift from individual to social and structural barriers to change
• Emphasis on active participation, self-determination, self-reliance, sustainability

Into the 90’s (20+ years later)
• Participatory communication critical for development
• Vertical communication acceptable/ desirable in specific contexts
• Community participation, a process with intrinsic value
• Efforts to better study and measure community participation, competence,leadership,...
![Page 31: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Re-examining the role of communication in development
• Rockefeller Foundation meetings (1997, 1998, 2000) explored new communication strategies for social change
• Group defined CFCS as “a process of public and private dialogue through which people define who they are, what they want and how they can get it.”
![Page 32: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Re-examining the role of communication in development
• Sustainability; owners of process and content of communication
• CFSC empowering, horizontal
• Communities as agents of their change
• From persuasion to dialogue and debate
• Shift in outcomes; social norms, culture, supportive environment

Effective dialogue
Effective dialogue (Rapoport, 1967) occurs when:
• Participants listen to one another (paraphrasing to the other’s satisfaction)
• Each acknowledges the conditions to accept the other’s argument as valid
• Each acknowledges the similarity of both points of view
Dialogue can lead to disagreement when each person’s interests and values are in conflict

Supportive theories and models
• Social systems (1990)
• Group Dynamics (1968, 1996)• Conflict Resolution (1988, 1999)• Leadership (1998)• Quality Improvement (1992, 1986)• Future search (1992, 1995)

CFSC Model
• Not a model for Social Change
Social change: the transformation of the overall structure represented by the change in the distribution of resources (educational, economic, power, discursive)
![Page 38: Introduction to Theories of Communication Effects: Ideation and](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062301/56814588550346895db26a53/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
CFSC Model
• Participatory processes as the one described in the model can be conducive to SC by:
enabling people to critically decide where they want to go and how
increasing community organization for collective action

“Those who authentically commit themselves to the people must re-examine themselves constantly.”
“… they almost always bring with them the marks of their origin: their prejudices and their deformations, which include a lack of confidence in the people’s ability to think, to want and to know.”
Paulo Freire, 1970
