    9. Is jargon providing you status?

    Is using jargon giving you more status? Common advice suggests avoiding jargon during presentations, as it can make it harder for your audience to grasp the information. However, some speakers want to signal their expertise. They believe that a presentation lacking jargon may come across as too simplistic and may undermine their credibility. In this podcast, we will discuss the use and function of jargon, focusing on one key question: does it help you gain status? === Sources used for this podcast LinkedIn-poll about status and jargon:  https://l1nk.dev/oUH8e  Article about people disliking complex language: https://neerlandistiek.nl/2022/12/hoger-opgeleiden-hechten-meer-aan-eenvoudige-teksten/ Science paper: https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/TVT2022.2.002.MAAT#CIT0031 Reading dies in complexity: Online news consumers prefer simple writing https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adn2555 The use of jargon kills people’s interest in science, politics: https://news.osu.edu/the-use-of-jargon-kills-peoples-interest-in-science-politics/  Jargon as a barrier to effective science communication: Evidence from metacognition https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0963662519865687?journalCode=pusa  Problems with using long words needlessly: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/acp.1178  Articles about the relationship between low status leads to more jargon: Authors from lower-status schools included more jargon in their poster titles:https://journals.aom.org/doi/abs/10.5465/AMPROC.2024.16568abstractArchival analyses found a low status → jargon effect across 64 k dissertation titles:https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0749597820303666  Hosted on Acast.
