【 摘 要 】

In marketing, there are many methods to relate reactions to products to customer preference. Current electroencephalography (EEG) signal analysis in the neuromarketing field focuses mainly on correlations between selected electrodes and hemisphere-based analysis on single scalp measures. The present study shows microstate analysis of brain EEG signals in goal-oriented videos. We measured a 16 channel EEG with an Emotiv EPOC+ device. We used two oriented videos from the Ecuadorian Government to publicize Ecuador as a tourist destination. We used a Topographic Atomize and Agglomerate Hierarchical Clustering (TAAHC) microstate analysis for the duration of the EEG as the participants watched each video. We picked the four predominant, in total time and repeatability, microstate maps that represent more than 50% of the entire recording time. We also show, in time, how topographies are represented along the video, which in a later step could be correlated with the images observed in the videos. We show the existing relations between the existing microstates. A microstate analysis of brain signal behavior across time might be a valid methodology and useful tool to analyze videos with marketing purposes.
