The Common Thread- The Audience, Message, and Purpose
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
• “No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it.”
• “Concern for man and his fate must always form the chief interest of all technical endeavors. Never forget this in the midst of all your diagrams and equations.”
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Public Servants-What are we doing with their money?
“In a recent radio interview a leading senior physicist described the modern scientific dilemma. ‘When I was in graduate school I thought I would go into a room and people would slide money through a slot in the door. I would do science, and then slide the results back out. But as my career has gone on, they are increasingly opening the door and asking me what I am doing with their money’.”

Back to the Future . . .again!
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Aye, there’s the rub . . . Balancing opportunity and responsibility
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
• Sender - “encoder”• Receiver - “decoder”• Noise—
− Relationship− Status difference− Receiver’s interest− Receiver’s emotional state− Receiver’s knowledge− Receiver’s communication skills

Identification without . . .losing our good name
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Allen’s reminder:
Communication is fundamental, constant, dynamic, and changes over time. Translation, implementation, and dissemination are dependent upon finely-honed, dynamic communication strategies and effective and evidence-based tools and tactics.
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
The basics
• Know your audience (s)!
• Know your message
• Know your purpose
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Some old theories still apply
• Rhetorical communication: Stimulating a source-selected meaning in the mind of a receiver (McCroskey)
• Imagery: Making the audience see, hear, taste, touch, feel more than is actually present…
• Active “listening”: How do they know they’ve been heard?
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Communication (McCroskey)
• Accidental Communication
• Expressive Communication
• Rhetorical Communication
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Findings on persuasion
• One is persuaded by someone he/she likes• One is persuaded by someone he/she believes• One is persuaded by someone he/she is close to
(proximate)
(Cialdini)

Key Encoding (McCroskey)
• Selection• Apportionment• Arrangement

The David K. Berlo Observation
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
“Did You Know?”- NCI
Time it took to reach adoption by 50 million persons
Radio → 38 years
Television → 13 years
Internet → 4 years
iPod → 3 years
Facebook → 2 years
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
. . . and Twitter
“13% of online adults use the status update service Twitter, which represents a significant increase from the 8% who identified themselves as Twitter users in November 2010. 95% of Twitter users own a mobile phone and half of these users access the service on their handheld device.”

ComparisonsWhen people evaluate an experience, they are performing one or more of the following comparisons:
1.Comparing the experience to what they hoped it would be
2.Comparing the experience to what they expected it to be
3.Comparing the experience to other experiences they have had in the recent past
4.Comparing the experience to experiences that others have had.

Behavior change theory… Diffusion
Robert C. Hornik in Public Health Communication: Evidence for Behavior Change . ed. Hornik RC. Mahwah, New Jersey: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, 2002. p 14
Individual effects [individuals improve knowledge and attitudes]
Social diffusion [change in public norms]
Institutional diffusion
[change in elite opinion, influencing policy, influencing individuals]
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Cultural competence
• Not an appliqué… Part of the fabric…
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Language challenges
• According to current Federal data, there are at least 329 languages* spoken or signed in the United States. In some cities, less than 60 percent of the population has English as a first language.
* [note apparently missing data from the 550+ recognized American Indian tribes—including 223 Alaskan native]
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Additional Challenges
• How fast do we talk? How fast do we think?
• How much of what we know that we have learned by listening?
• Amount of the time we are distracted, preoccupied or forgetful? 75%
• How much we usually recall immediately after we listen to someone talk?
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
. . . And why the sound bite is actually important
• We listen at 125–250 words per minute, but think at 1000–3000 words per minute. (High Gain, Inc.)
• How much of what we know that we have learned by listening? 85% (Shorp)
• Amount of the time we are distracted, preoccupied or forgetful? 75% (Hunsaker)
• How much we usually recall immediately after we listen to someone talk? 50% (International Listening Association)

What communication alone can do
• Increase the intended audience’s knowledge and awareness of a (health issue), problem, or solution
• Influence perceptions, beliefs, and social norms• Prompt action• Demonstrate of illustrate skills• Reinforce knowledge, attitudes, or behavior• Show benefits of behavior change• Advocate a position• Increase demand or support for services• Refute myths and misconceptions• Strengthen organizational relationshipsThe Pink Book NCI
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Communication combined with other strategies can do:
• Cause sustained change in which an individual maintains a new (health) behavior or an organization adopts and maintains a new policy direction
• Overcome barriers/ systematic problems
The Pink Book NCI
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Communication cannot:
• Compensate for inadequate systems/resources• Produce sustained change in complex behaviors without
support of a larger program for change• Be equally effective in addressing all issues or relaying
all messages or suggested behavior change may be complex, because the intended audience may have preconceptions about the topic or the message sender, or because the topic may be controversial
The Pink Book NCI
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
What kind of learner?
• Auditory
• Visual
• Tactile
Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12Marin P. Allen, Ph.D. 4/10/12
Some Take Home Messages• Communication is a fundamental skill-and an art• Communication makes ideas live and have greater
impact on civilization• Communication should be both honest and skillfully
constructed• You must know your audience (s), your purpose and your
message every time• Scientists have an increasing need to communicate• Prepare carefully-and out loud• Enjoy the process and the product• Stay in touch with new opportunities
