That is , the quality of communication sources ( sources ) , such as credibility , leadership , speaking style , determine the success of behavior change a person, group or community .

    
Theory Festinger ( Dissonance Theory )
This means that a state of cognitive dissonance is a psychological imbalance that is covered by a strain yourself trying to reach equilibrium again . If there is a balance within the individual , then it means it's been a tension away again , and this state is called consonance balance ( equilibrium ) . The imbalance occurs because of the knowledge contained within the individual , an opinion or belief . When individuals face an object and the stimulus or the stimulus raises different opinions or beliefs , self- contradictory in the individuals themselves , and there was dissonance .

    
Function theory
This theory is based on the assumption that individual behavior change depending on the needs . This means that the stimulus that can lead to changes in a person's behavior is a stimulus that can be understood in the context of the person's needs .

    
Theory of Kurt Lewin
