Dump-and-Chase: The Effectiveness of Persistence as a Compliance-Gaining Strategy.
Unformatted Document Text:  Dump-and-Chase 2 Abstract Two field experiments were performed to assess the effectiveness of the dump-and-chase (DAC), a compliance-gaining technique that introduces a particular method of employing persistence to influence others. The outcomes of these two experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the DAC relative to other compliance-gaining techniques known to be effective. In Experiment 1 the DAC was found to be more effective than the pooled data from the door-in-the-face (DITF) technique and the placebic information (PI) technique. In Experiment 2 the DAC was found to be more effective than the DITF, PI, and foot-in-the-door (FITD) techniques. The effect of the DAC was consistent across experiments, as well as producing relatively higher compliance-gaining rates. Moreover, because the contextual features of two experiments differed substantially, the effect occurred under heterogeneous conditions. Directions for subsequent tests of the DAC are discussed.

Abstract
Two field experiments were performed to assess the effectiveness of the dump-and-chase (DAC),
a compliance-gaining technique that introduces a particular method of employing persistence to
influence others. The outcomes of these two experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the
DAC relative to other compliance-gaining techniques known to be effective. In Experiment 1 the
DAC was found to be more effective than the pooled data from the door-in-the-face (DITF)
technique and the placebic information (PI) technique. In Experiment 2 the DAC was found to be
more effective than the DITF, PI, and foot-in-the-door (FITD) techniques. The effect of the DAC
was consistent across experiments, as well as producing relatively higher compliance-gaining
rates. Moreover, because the contextual features of two experiments differed substantially, the
effect occurred under heterogeneous conditions. Directions for subsequent tests of the DAC are
discussed.
