Abstract
This investigation has several main objectives: 1) to
determine whether the third-person effect (TRE)
(Gunther & Thorson 1992;Youn, Faber, & Shah,
2000) can be achieved through advertising
messages; 2) to identify which strategies for
persuasive social influence from P. Cialdini
(Cialdini, 2001-2021) help to enhance the third-
person effect (TRE) among advertising consumers;
3) to find some causal relationships between
susceptibility to persuasion on Kaptein’s scale
(Kaptein et al., 2012) or STPS and TRE among
consumers of advertising. The results of the
analysis of variance (ANOVA) showed that
consumers aged 46 to 65 believed that positive the
third-person effect (TRE) statements exert their
influence on other age groups. When measuring the
negative influence of the third-person effect (TRE),
it was found that young adults aged 18 to 25 were
most likely to assume that this influence was
successful among other consumers, i.e. they
overestimated the effects on others but not on
themselves. Through regression analyses, it is
found that persuasive strategies such as scarcity and
social proof achieve their influence among youths,
and scarcity and authority principles - among
females and among other consumers (but not on
themselves) when several negative strategies are
combined. The research findings can serve social
psychologists, behavioural psychologists, and those
who protect the interests of business organizations.
Keywords: TRE, persuasive strategies in
advertisement, STPS for Bulgarian costumers.
