Central route
Peripheral route
An important concept in the ELM is the need for cognition (NC). This is
the view that some people have a stronger need than others to know
more about a concept/product etc.
that people who are high in need of cognition are more likely to use the
central route (central processing).
It has also been argued that we are more likely to centrally process
information which is of relevance to us. If the message we are presented
with has little relevance to us or we have no direct experience of it, we
are more likely to use peripheral processing.
