A) peripheral route persuasion.
B) central route persuasion.
C) attributions.
D) cognitive dissonance.

The advertising strategy used in the magazine computer ads, which offers detailed information for consumers to develop more positive opinions about the company's products, reflects the central route persuasion. Central route persuasion is a strategy that involves using logical arguments and detailed information to persuade people to change their attitudes and beliefs towards a product or service. In contrast, peripheral route persuasion relies on superficial cues, such as endorsements from famous people, to influence people's perceptions. However, this is not the case in the given scenario as Hollywood stars or great athletes are not being used as endorsers in the ads. Therefore, option A is incorrect. Attributions refer to the process of explaining the reasons for an individual's behavior or actions. Cognitive dissonance involves a state of mental discomfort caused by holding contradictory beliefs or values. Neither of these concepts is applicable in the given scenario, making options C and D incorrect.
