SGLabs Methodology

01

Overlaying data across multiple testing modalities allows us to combine explicit research, such as surveys and traditional methods, with cognitive and implicit research grounded in neuroscience. Implicit methods measure the strength of participants’ associations with brands, products, or ads, while interviews and surveys provide direct insights into how they feel, their attitudes, and perceptions. Together, this multi-modal approach helps us understand not only what consumers and decision-makers think, but why they think it. To learn more, visit our about us page.
