Information Manipulation Theory
This theory involves a persuasive person deliberately breaking one of the four conversational maxims. These are the four:
- Quantity: Information is complete and full.
- Quality: Information is truthful and accurate.
- Relation: Information is relevant to the conversation.
- Manner: Information is expressed in an easy-to-understand way and non-verbal actions support the tone of the statement.
