Source: https://www.cscan.org/default.asp?page=openaccess&eid=17&id=294Psychological operations or PsyOps is a multi-disciplinary capability that requires technology in the social sciences, as well as in areas of design, Information and Communication Technology (ICT), electronics, broadcasting and printing. It has been a part of warfare since early history. Over the ages, many of the tools and methodologies regarded as the vehicles of PsyOps delivery and employed to achieve both PsyOps effects and effectiveness, have both changed and stayed the same. This research proposes an evaluation framework for PsyOps. The purpose of this research is to investigate historical PsyOps and determine the evolutionary trend of these PsyOps with regards to growth in technology. Furthermore, this research also investigates the role that social media plays within the domain of PsyOps and how social media impacts PsyOps.enPsychological OperationsPsyOpsMeasurement of EffectMeasurement of EffectivenessSocial MediaTarget Audience AnalysisConference PresentationMouton, F., Pillay, K., & Van‘t Wout, MC (2016).
