Rafał Ohme’s experiment and book titled “Emo Sapiens: harmonia emocji I rozumu”


Hello guys!

I would love to share with you a new extraordinary book which was written by RafałOhme, a polish psychologist. I came across his name in one of the articles about psychology where was presented his experiment. 

Before telling you something more about the experiment I would like to say a few words about the psychologist RafałOhme. He is not only a great professor of psychology but also an expert in persuasion and unconscious processes. He is the founder of NEUROHM, a company that uses the analysis of physiological reactions (including brainwaves and reaction times) for marketing, sales, HR and PR and FEEL.DO.THINK. which deals with education and training in the field of emotions and communication in management. What is more, he is a author of several books and many articuls dedicated to the neuromarketing, brain studies or the influence of the emotions on the human being.

Back at the ranch, the experiment consisted in checking what was the first things that men or women looked at while were watching an magazine or newspaper. It was possible to examine this phenomena only by using a special tool colledeye tracker. To explain it to you in more scientific way, we can say that the object is used for the analysis of visual attention. From the perspective of neuromarketing, it seeks to associate visual attention with the cognitive and emotional responses of consumers. Eye tracking measures where the person is looking (named gaze or fixation point), the time that this person looked at this certain point, the movement of his eyes (and moreover, the sequence in which the eyes shift from one spot to another), pupil dilation, and the number of blinks.

According Ohme, understanding the mechanisms that guide consumers to select certain points of interest in an image have many applications for the business world. This knowledge is very valuable especially for TV advertisements, in which lots of information is generated every millisecond, possibly hindering the identification of what the viewer really liked, or what actually called his attention in a positive or negative way.

At the end, I would like to recommend you his new masterpiece which is of course his lates book.
If you want to discover the way and techniques how to link the brain with the power of your emotions, how to use your emotions to goad yourself on, or just to find out  something more about the brain, emotions and many other things which are hidden inside of us. If the answer is yes, it is a perfect book for you! You will not regret it for sure!
