Neuromarketing in the Digital Age: The Direct Relation between Facial Expressions and Website Design

2022 , Guillermo González-Mena , Del-Valle-Soto, Carolina , Corona, Violeta , Rodríguez, Jafet

User experience (UX) is key in the immediate and future relationship between the client and business. Achieving a satisfying UX can only be achieved by understanding the wishes and user needs. The following study is carried out as an improvement tool for a Mexican coffee company. The objective is to achieve greater efficiency, attraction, and engagement on the part of the user. The main question is whether the new dynamic website design can directly increase the valence of user emotions compared to the static website design. To answer this question, 39 participants were exposed to the two different web page designs and elicited the following emotions using eye tracking and facial expression analysis (FEA) techniques: joy, anger, surprise, fear, contempt, disgust, sadness, neutral, positive, and negative. Through a Wilcoxon signed-rank test, the results showed a significant increase for the new dynamic design in the following emotions; joy, anger, surprise, disgust, fear and neutral. Thus, five of the seven basic emotions had a significant change that could lead to greater attraction and commitment on the part of the user and also influence, either consciously or unconsciously, their decision when interacting with the company.

AbstractAs people age, they tend to spend more time indoors, and the colours in their surroundings may significantly impact their mood and overall well‐being. However, there is a lack of empirical evidence to provide informed guidance on colour choices, irrespective of age group. To work towards informed choices, we investigated whether the associations between colours and emotions observed in younger individuals also apply to older adults. We recruited 7393 participants, aged between 16 and 88 years and coming from 31 countries. Each participant associated 12 colour terms with 20 emotion concepts and rated the intensity of each associated emotion. Different age groups exhibited highly similar patterns of colour–emotion associations (average similarity coefficient of .97), with subtle yet meaningful age‐related differences. Adolescents associated the greatest number but the least positively biased emotions with colours. Older participants associated a smaller number but more intense and more positive emotions with all colour terms, displaying a positivity effect. Age also predicted arousal and power biases, varying by colour. Findings suggest parallels in colour–emotion associations between younger and older adults, with subtle but significant age‐related variations. Future studies should next assess whether colour–emotion associations reflect what people actually feel when exposed to colour.

Many of us “see red,” “feel blue,” or “turn green with envy.” Are such color-emotion associations fundamental to our shared cognitive architecture, or are they cultural creations learned through our languages and traditions? To answer these questions, we tested emotional associations of colors in 4,598 participants from 30 nations speaking 22 native languages. Participants associated 20 emotion concepts with 12 color terms. Pattern-similarity analyses revealed universal color-emotion associations (average similarity coefficient r = .88). However, local differences were also apparent. A machine-learning algorithm revealed that nation predicted color-emotion associations above and beyond those observed universally. Similarity was greater when nations were linguistically or geographically close. This study highlights robust universal color-emotion associations, further modulated by linguistic and geographic factors. These results pose further theoretical and empirical questions about the affective properties of color and may inform practice in applied domains, such as well-being and design.

Comparación de la percepción de los consumidores sobre los arándanos (Vaccinium corymbosum L. cv. Biloxi) colombianos y mexicanos

2024 , Jessica Rubiano-Moreno , Corona Cabrera, Alba Violeta , Alejandro Rodríguez-Magaña , Purificación García-Segovia

Los consumidores suelen asociar sus preferencias con sabores específicos según la procedencia de los alimentos y bebidas; sin embargo, no siempre se consideran estas diferencias cuando se exportan dichos alimentos. Esta investigación presenta los resultados de un estudio diseñado para evaluar diferencias interculturales en la percepción de los consumidores mexicanos y colombianos de características organolépticas (gusto general, frescura, intensidad de color, intensidad de aroma, acidez) entre el arándano cultivar biloxi cultivado en México y Colombia. Se diseñó un estudio experimental basado en un cuestionario en el que 397 consumidores de ambos países (192 en México, 205 en Colombia) evaluaron distintos atributos sensoriales de dos muestras: un arándano mexicano y uno colombiano, ambos de la variedad biloxi. Adicionalmente, se realizó un análisis de microexpresiones faciales para complementar los resultados del experimento con indicadores de valencia emocional. Se demostró que ciertas correspondencias entre las propiedades organolépticas son consistentes en ambas culturas. Específicamente, en ambas nacionalidades, se evidencia un efecto significativo en los atributos acidez, amargura y dulzura. El arándano colombiano fue percibido más dulce, mientras que el arándano mexicano fue evaluado como más amargo y ácido. Cuando el arándano evaluado fue clasificado como más ácido, la calificación de gusto general fue más baja. Estos resultados son relevantes para los productores, comercializadores y exportadores de arándanos, sabiendo que aquellas variedades más dulces serán las que tendrán mayor aceptación por parte de los consumidores colombianos y mexicanos.
