Morphology
convincibility = convincible (transparent) = convince + ible + ity
Standard formation: 'convincible' (convince + -ible) + -ity yields a noun meaning 'the quality of being able to be convinced', which is directly derivable for learners.
Etymology
Convincibility comes from the parts con- 'together', vincere 'to win', and the ending -ibility meaning 'able to'. Think of it as 'able to be won' — if someone has high convincibility, they can be 'won over' by good reasons, which is why the word means being open to persuasion.
