Stephen Phillips, Spring Research

 

Research in a world of irrational expectations

 

 

Synopsis     Those of us in the industry know that today's researchers have to be on the pulse of developments in the understanding of human behaviour.  Behavioural Economics in the last 5 years has made a big impact on marketing, business and government strategy.  Yet how much of this thinking has fed into the way we conduct Market Research on a day to day basis? This presentation will demonstrate Behavioural Economics at work and the reasoning (or not) behind human behaviour.  It will explore some Behavioural Economics fundamentals, and then investigate the impact this has on research processes and how we researchers should be changing what we are doing in light of these insights.

 

Biography      Steve Phillips is the Chief Happiness Officer of Spring Research. His work focuses on understanding consumer motivation and behaviour and he was instrumental in developing the Snakes & Ladders approach to exploring the purchase journey. This work won the 'Best New Thinking' award at the MRS Conference and also led to Spring winning the industry's Innovation award. His ESOMAR paper on advocacy was nominated for two awards in 2010 and other work on advocacy gained Spring Research an honourable mention in the WOMMY awards. He recently won best overall paper at the ESOMAR Congress 2011 for his paper on Behavioural Economics.

Jonathan Gable, Brainjuicer and Christiane Quaas, Pharmaton, Boehringer-Ingelheim

 

From “Me” to “We” Research: A New Way of Looking

 

Synopsis   As market researchers, our goal is to seek out consumer truths, understand people and attempt to predict their behaviour. We ask individuals about their own opinions, motivations and behaviours, in the belief that asking respondents about themselves (“Me” research) will lead to a faithful and accurate representation of the truth. Christiane and Jonathan are going to challenge that dogma, pointing out that we are often unreliable witnesses to our own motivations and poor predictors of our own behaviour. They will show another way called “We” research, an emerging research approach that should sit alongside conventional methods - where we ask respondents to play to their human strengths of observation, interpretation and prediction -- to tell us what they perceive about their fellow humans, not about themselves.

 

Using a case study, the presentation shows how they combined several disciplines of “We” research with more conventional methods in developing an extremely promising health care concept without once asking a consumer for an own opinion: Mass Anthropology (the use of readily available datasets), Mass Ethnography (asking respondents to work as detectives to gather clues about target group behaviour) and Mass Prediction (asking a crowd of people, rather than a targeted sample, to make a judgement on the concepts as if they were investors). It will show how the process identified winning ideas which proved their potential in subsequent research and in market.

Embedding qualitative techniques in quantitative studies: Using Visual Techniques to Tap into the Subconscious

 

For the most part, the MR industry has lost step with its audience by viewing online research as merely a transfer of historical approaches from the "real world" to the digital world. What it needs is a fresh approach that asks, "What's possible?" The traditional quantitative research process is typically: brief with words, collect data with words and numbers, analyse with words and numbers, and debrief with words and numbers. As consumers ourselves, we know brand decisions are not only mostly irrational and nonverbal, but they are rarely our top of mind thoughts. So why, as researchers, do we habitually rely on consumer verbalisation methods that excessively use rational, left-brain processing?

 

We've fallen into the two camps of qualitative and quantitative research. Only a small fraction of researchers have looked to couple qualitative and quantitative techniques but they are virtually all serial efforts in which quantitative merely follows qualitative or vice versa.

 

We will present our experiences and thinking in using qualitative techniques - projective and enabling techniques - within quantitative studies. And we will demonstrate how you can evolve to reveal quantitative information in qualitative data and qualitative information in quantitative data.
