A revolution in the science of psychology
We are not thinking
machines that feel,
rather, we are
feeling machines
that think.”
Prof. Antonio Damasio

2 systems of the unconscious and conscious brain
System 1
•Quick emotions, impressions, intentions and feelings
System 2
•Our conscious self, reason, self control

Neuroscience has shown that brand
choices are primarily driven by
System 1 (Automatic, emotional, fast)
brain processes and less by System 2
(Effortful, cognitive thought)

System 1 decisions are the invisible majority
Ads which touch our emotions can build long term
associations and empathy with the brand

The use of both survey metrics and neurometrics reflects that there are two parallel
paths that can be independent, or interact, resulting in a complete evaluation.

How do we measure emotions?
What is an emotion?
A strong
feeling deriving
from one’s circumstances,
mood, or relationships
with others

Emotions cause a chain reaction throughout the body

Facial coding

The human face has
evolved to instantly
communicate emotions
With facial coding we
can measure emotional
response

Surprise
Sadness
Fear
Disgust Anger
ENGAGEMENT
AUTOMATED FACIAL CODING – HOW IT WORKS
A webcam embedded on
the computers detects all
facial movements as
people watch an ad
Artificial intelligence
detects facial muscles and
movements
Behavioral modeling /
machine learning
decodes facial behavior
according to FACS*
*Facial Action Coding System developed by psychologist Paul Ekman.

No meaningful differences between ad and norm
AND A DIAGNOSTIC DASHBOARD TO PULL IT ALL TOGETHER
In practice,
• Changes in viewer response during the comms may be more informative than absolute numbers vs norms.
• Patterns of response depend on structure of the comms, but there are some key patterns that have been associated
with successful engagement for award winning comms.

“EMOTIONAL TRACTION” ?
An assessment of overall emotionality of the ad
POSITIVE EMOTION?
An assessment of overall happiness evoked by the ad
ENGAGE EARLY?
Does the ad significantly engage within first few seconds of
the spot?
END POSITIVELY?
Does the ad end with more engagement than it started with?
Is there more happiness?
APPROPRIATE AFFECT?
Does the ad evoke the intended emotional response at key
moments (e.g., happiness following joke execution, negativity
during problem set up, etc.)
TROUBLE SPOTS?
Are there points where the audience is ‘lost’ (engagement
drops) or negativity spikes undesirably?
POSITIVE BRAND AFFECT?
Is response to the Brand & branding moments positive?
Overall engagement rises as intended with

IN SUMMARY
Emotion
plays a
large role
in brand
decisions
facial coding
enhances our
ability to
understand
and improve
emotional
engagement.
Advertising can
leverage this
through
touching our
emotions and
building
empathy
Measuring both
system 1 and 2
response side-byside gives us the best
possible chance of
developing
campaigns that build
long term brand
value

what. I don’t want to be
the girly man.”
SNICKERS: POSSIBLE WORDING OF THE BIG IDEA
Piercing Insight
 It’s important to recognize and respect the “code of conduct” of
being a guy. But symptoms of hunger don’t respect the code.
The irritability and weakness can result in a bit of a drama
queen.
Brand Connection
Snickers , the proper nut filled bar, will sort out your hunger and
return you to your rightful place in the pack.
Bottom Line
 Snickers: You are Not You When You are Hungry
