156.- Trans-Disciplinary Communication and Persuasion in Convergence Research Approach [IJHSR]

The interplay of ‘Communication and Persuasion’ is fundamental in shaping opinions, influencing behavior, and driving decisions. Effective communication goes beyond mere information exchange; it involves strategic message design, audience understanding, and the subtle art of influencing. Persuasion, as a facet of communication, leverages rhetorical appeals to ethos, pathos, and logos, thereby aligning message and audience values. This intricate dance between communicator and audience dictates the outcomes of numerous societal, professional, and personal interactions, making it an area of profound significance in the study of human relations and decision-making.

Exciting Announcement: Publication in the International Journal of Human Sciences Research

I am thrilled to share our latest publication in the esteemed International Journal of Human Sciences Research. The paper, titled «Trans-Disciplinary Communication and Persuasion in Convergence Research Approach,» is a collaborative effort with distinguished colleagues authors James Lipuma, Marcos O. Cabobianco, and editors Edgar Meritano and Bruce Bukiet. It’s an honor to be a part of this paper (León et al., 2024).

Paper Abstract:

This paper investigates the role of persuasion in research, specifically focusing on Trans-Disciplinary Communication (TDC). It distinguishes between convincing and obtaining consent, commitment, or consensus within TDC. It explores whether academic presenters should advocate for their positions or contribute to the disciplinary body of knowledge. The analysis employs a Systematic Literature Review and a Bibliometric Network visualization to examine state-of-the-art TDC research. Persuasion is contextualized within the public debate, and its relevance to the search for objective truth and paradigm shifts in research is discussed. The paper explores Trans-Disciplinary, Inter-Disciplinary, and Multi-Disciplinary Communication in collaborative research, highlighting the counterproductivity of contentious debates in TDC and convergence research. The role of persuasion is examined through theoretical frameworks such as Game Theory, Critical Theory, and the Theory of Interactive Team Cognition. This comprehensive exploration emphasizes the need for a Trans-Disciplinary approach to clarify terms and taxonomies and enhance understanding among researchers worldwide. It sheds light on communication and language functions, theoretical frameworks, and the debates surrounding TDC and convergence research. The paper suggests future directions for TDR and TDC, aiming to foster effective communication practices in the global research community.
