Resumo: This study examines the use of retractors and explainers in prepared political speeches of American charismatic presidents. It is based upon the results of psychological analysis of 24 speeches of John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, and Gerald Ford. The research shows that certain differences may be found in the use of explainers and retractors not along the axis “Charismatic versus Non-Charismatic Presidents”, but with regard to their party affiliation. Rhetoric of Democratic presidents (Kennedy, Obama) is characterized by a more explanatory communication style than of Republican ones (Reagan, Ford), which results in respective differences in the use of explainers. As for the retractors, all the four presidents under study tend to use the category moderately, which reveals them as emotionally controlled individuals, able to reconsider their decisions if necessary.

O estudo baseia-se em resultados da análise psicológica de 24 discursos de John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama, e Gerald Ford. A pesquisa mostra que podemos encontrar diferenças no uso de explicadores e retratores não relativamente ao eixo "Presidentes Carismáticos versus Não-Carismáticos", mas em relação à sua filiação partidária. A retórica dos presidentes democratas (Kennedy, Obama) é caracterizada por um estilo de comunicação mais explicativo do que a dos republicanos (Reagan, Ford), o que resulta em diferenças respectivas no uso de explicadores. Quanto aos retratores, todos os quatro presidentes em estudo tendem a usar a categoria de forma moderada, o que os caracteriza como indivíduos emocionalmente controlados e capazes de reconsiderar as suas decisões, se necessário.Dos Algarves: Tourism, Hospitality & Management JournalDos Algarves: Tourism, Hospitality & Management Journal2017-01-31info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://www.dosalgarves.com/index.php/dosalgarves/article/view/27Dos Algarves: Tourism, Hospitality & Management Journal; n. 22 (2013); 4-22Dos Algarves: Tourism, Hospitality & Management Journal; n. 22 (2013); 4-222182-5580reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://www.dosalgarves.com/index.php/dosalgarves/article/view/27https://www.dosalgarves.com/index.php/dosalgarves/article/view/27/141Copyright (c) 2015 Dos Algarves: A Multidisciplinary e-Journalinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessKovalchuk, Iaroslav; Faculty of Human and Social Sciences, University of the Algarve2024-01-27T07:45:23Zoai:ojs.dosalgarves:article/27Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T01:58:05.840937Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
