Likelihood function

with cohesion of the theory. We used many questions to gain insight as to what the children did and did not know. This method was used to trigger the mind maps of each student and help to draw on those concepts. We also incorporated the elaboration likelihood model in that most of the information we provided to the children was from a credible source which would follow the central route of processing. These messages were simplistic, represented in text through slideshow, which allowed the…

In September, Donald Trump aired an ad against Hillary Clinton. Earlier in the month, Clinton gave a speech to donors in which she called Trump supporters “deplorable” because of their stances on social issues. In this ad, Trump attacks Clinton for her comment. The video begins with a montage of clips in which Clinton is (literally) framed in a dark light while a woman narrator explains the premise of Clinton’s quote. Next is a clip of Clinton, again darkened, saying the “basket of deplorables”…

processed in batch, but it may also be run recursively. The method indirectly assumes constant position offsets from the INS position each time it is started. Point Mass Filter (PMF) PMF is a calculation that determines the position probability density function (PDF), as said by (N. Bergman, 1999). The point mass filter estimator the priori position distributions together with the error models of the depth measurements and the map to produce a posteriori probability…

wrong place with thousands of death and wounded heroes, but if a Democrat become president we will refuse to put any American soldier on the ground in the wrong time and place”. Additionally, using the central rout processing of the Elaboration Likelihood Model is better choice if the people are against your views because the audience need more effort to persuade them. In fact, this route need a strong and quality argument with evidence. For example, to argue that in the US criminal justice…

Communication is used everywhere, every day, in everyone’s lives. Because it has such an important role within cultures across the board, it is vital to understand the act of communication to better understand those around you. Authors of A First Look at Communication Theory Griffin, Ledbetter and Sparks explain communication by breaking it into separate theories throughout the book. I have chosen just a few that were personally impactful and are the most relatable of all the communication…

They surveyed 386 adolescents and tested four hypothesizes. Two hypothesizes were related to ambivalence, which was defines as the attitude toward marijuana use, and two related to risk, which was characterized as the likelihood of future marijuana use based on personality traits and history. The first two hypothesizes were “Adolescents who feel more ambivalent about marijuana use overall will be more easily persuaded by anti-drug messages than those who feel less ambivalent”…

method. Based on given two dimensional (2-D) training data for two classes, we created a classifier using discriminant function (which is the logarithmic version of Bayes formula) and used it to classify provided test data. We estimated the necessary statistical parameters, such as mean covariance and prior probabilities, from the training data set. We modeled two discriminant functions, which were further used on test data to discriminate between the two classes. We assumed that all the data…

In 1906, author Upton Sinclair’s novel, The Jungle, changed the course of history and led to the reformation of Chicago’s meatpacking industry, which was plagued by managerial corruption and unsanitary conditions. Shortly after the novel’s release, the federal government took legal action against the entire industry (Hevrdejs). The Jungle demonstrates the power of fiction to create social change. However, since the early 20th century, society has transitioned from a reliance on the written word…

The Green Code: Cinematic Communication for Sustainable Behavior In 1906, author Upton Sinclair penned a work of fiction that would change the course of history. His novel, The Jungle, led to the disintegration and reformation of Chicago’s meatpacking industry, which was plagued by managerial corruption and egregious health code violations. Shortly after the novel’s released, the federal government launched an official investigation into the industry and took legal action against the industry…

Elaboration Likelihood Model, we are positioning ourselves to influence a brand image among our frequent business travelers. We understand that by increasing our brand image we need to target our audience by using a holistic approach using both the central and peripheral route. Therefore, the ELM method works great for what we are striving for. DEFINING ELM: History: The elaboration likelihood model of persuasion is a dual route approach to attitude and behavioral change. The Elaboration…
