    Study Notes

    Nonverbal Communication

    • Only 7% of message meaning is conveyed through verbal language, while nonverbal cues make up the remaining 93%
    • Nonverbal cues include haptics (touch), vocalics (paralanguage), proxemics (spatial cues), chronemics (temporal cues), and oculesics (eye contact, gaze, pupil dilation)
    • Nonverbal cues are typically believed over verbal cues in the case of contradictions.

    Imagination and Metaphors

    • Imagination is crucial for understanding and interpreting experiences, and metaphors are central to this process.
    • Metaphors are powerful tools for imagination, as they allow us to create connections and make sense of abstract concepts.

    Importance of Metaphors in Marketing Research

    • Most market research tools are verbocentric, relying on literal language to collect and analyze data.
    • To access hidden knowledge and gain deeper insights, research methods should incorporate metaphors.
    • Metaphors can surface hidden knowledge, making them valuable tools for understanding consumer behavior.

    Sensory Metaphors

    • Individuals within a culture share systematic connections between sensory metaphors.
    • Sensory order and cultural significance are intertwined, impacting how people experience the world.
    • Different cultures may favor specific sensory combinations, with practical value reflecting cultural importance.

    The Influence of Unconscious Thought

    • Most emotions and cognitive functions occur unconsciously, guiding thought and behavior.
    • Higher-order consciousness, or awareness of awareness, facilitates decision making.
    • Consciousness is the end result of unconscious neural information processing.

    Implicit Learning and Mental Models

    • Implicit learning and mental models play a significant role in unconscious information processing.
    • Mental models are largely dormant, but they are activated in various contexts, influencing our perception and behavior.
    • Mental models interact with perceptual systems, such as vision.

    Research Methods Beyond Constructs

    • Research methods need to go beyond identifying relevant constructs to explore the associations between them.
    • Subtle differences in thought processes connecting constructs should be carefully examined.
    • Associations among constructs should be elicited directly from consumers and managers.
