Abstract

In this chapter, we will briefly discuss some of the external factors that may affect conference performance. We will reexplore the triangulation of the persuasive, informative, entertainment dimensions in terms of static versus dynamic speech, contrasting the notion of ‘reading a paper’ with the broader concept of ‘performing a presentation.’ We will also discuss other affective factors such as the value of a CP versus that of a research paper publication and the presenter’s external motives for participating in a conference.
