Questions: Brainwashing differs from other attitude change methods in that it requires a captive audience.

The answer is C: captive audience.

Explanation:

• Communicator: While a communicator is often involved in various methods of attitude change, brainwashing specifically requires more than just a communicator. It involves controlling the environment and the audience.

• Message: A message is a component of many attitude change methods, but brainwashing is distinct in its approach and intensity, often involving repetitive and coercive messaging.

• Captive audience: Brainwashing is characterized by the presence of a captive audience. This means the individuals undergoing brainwashing are often in a situation where they cannot escape the influence, allowing for intense and prolonged exposure to the message.

• Religious zealot: While some brainwashing scenarios may involve religious elements, the term "religious zealot" is not a defining characteristic of brainwashing itself. Brainwashing can occur in various contexts, not limited to religious ones.
