Abstract: For advertisers, attracting attention to video marketing stimuli is paramount to building and refreshing consumers’ brand memories and increasing their propensity to purchase. Research has demonstrated brand users are more likely to recall advertising, possibly suggesting a brand’s commercials draw more attention from current users than potential new customers. Testing whether prior brand usage […]

Floral designers have long been taught that the most important attributes of a floral design are the elements of line, color, texture, pattern, form, space, and size. Yet, little formal research has been conducted to determine which of these design elements are truly important to consumers and drive their purchasing behavior. This project, co-funded by […]

Abstract: The main objective of this study was to investigate the potential of combining subjective and objective measures of learning process to uncover the mechanisms underlying the spatial contiguity effect in multimedia learning. The subjective measures of learning process were self-reported cognitive load ratings and the objective measures were eye-tracking and EEG measures. Learning outcome […]

Abstract: The present study explores the adoption of electroencephalography and eye tracking to assess physiological differences between divergent and convergent thinking. In neuroscientific literature alpha power synchronization in the right parietal lobe has been associated to top-down inhibition of task-irrelevant cognitive processes occurring during divergent thinking, but findings in oculometric studies seem to suggest a […]

Abstract: We investigated the role automated behavior plays in contributing to security breaches. Using different forms of phishing, combined with multiple neurophysiological tools, we were able to more fully understand the approaches participants took when they engaged with a phishing campaign. The four participants of this pilot study ranged in their individual characteristics of gender […]

Abstract: The impact of built environment on the human restorativeness has long been argued; however, the interrelations between neuroscience and the built environment, and the degree to which the built environment contributes to increased human restorativeness has not been completely understood yet. Understanding the interrelations between neuroscience and the built environment is critical as 90% […]

Abstract: This paper presents an Electroencephalography (EEG), Pulse Plethysmography (PPG) and Galvanic Skin Response (GSR) study for neuromarketing studies, which are related to analysis of relationship between electrodes and emotional stress across to commercial advertisement. Neuromarketing is a field of study with respect the application of neuroscience methods to analyze consumer behavior related to markets. Wavelet […]

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine the interaction effect between online Cause-Related Marketing (CRM) advertisements and brand reputation on consumers’ brand evaluation in the hotel industry. Two experimental studies were conducted: (1) a survey-based experiment that demonstrates the moderating role of brand reputation, and (2) a laboratory experiment using psychophysiological measurements of […]

Abstract: This work investigates the relation between subjective Video Quality Assessment (VQA) metrics and psychophysiological measures of human interaction assessment such as gaze tracking, electroencephalography and facial expression recognition. Subjective quality assessment is based on deliberate judgement attributions of perceived quality and processes that human perceivers are not consciously aware of. Traditional VQA methods ask […]

Abstract: This study aims to examine how taboo content affects language learner psychology and language learning gains in a multi-modal learning environment by using facial expression analysis. 40 Muslim language learners were initially asked about their opinions on pork and watched a subtitled cooking video including pork visuals and their facial expressions were recorded. Before […]
