_Cracking the biometric nut!_ Beyond persuasion: rethinking available advertising research tools By Cristina de Balanzó, PhD. Founder & The Main Nut @crisbalanzo IIeX São Paulo , 25th March 2013

description

As we learn more about the human brain, we know that people largely use their instincts when processing information and making decisions. From a research perspective, this means that people cannot explain their motivations except at an aggregate and holistic emotional level – what ‘feels right’ to them. If asked to think more deeply and explain their feelings, people willingly come up with views, but these are largely incomplete and often incorrect rationalizations or cognitive distortions. In recent years, science has progressed in its understanding of human behaviour and decision-making and this has immense implications for market research. We therefore need to find ways of incorporating this knowledge into traditional research to explore the unconscious to understand human behaviour better. It is about building bridges between cutting-edge scientific research and current business practices. Walnut will illustrate how including data from unconscious emotional reactions provides a deeper understanding of advertising effectiveness and eventually, it will explain better how advertising works and how emotion has a central role to predict effectiveness beyond traditional metrics such as persuasion, awareness, likeability or recall.

_IT TALKS ABOUT HOW EMOTION and ITS STRENGTH better predict effectiveness_

CONSCIOUS, RATIONAL, VERBAL.

UNCONSCIOUS, EMOTIONAL, NON-VERBAL.

HOW BIG IS OUR CONSCIOUS MIND?
