Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The question is about the format of the message, not the speed or mode of delivery. Research has shown that difficult messages are better understood and more persuasive when presented in written form, so option C is the most appropriate. Easy messages, on the other hand, are more persuasive when presented in a visual format, such as a video, rather than just written form (option A). Option B is incorrect because spoken messages can be either easy or difficult, depending on the content. Option D is also incorrect as there is no evidence to suggest that the speed of delivery affects the persuasiveness of the message.
