520 _a"Qualitative research is changing dramatically--taking its cues from such disciplines as ethnography, segmentation and cognitive science. As a result, some businesses believe they are gaining a better sense of consumers' true feelings about a product and whether they'll remember a particular ad. These focus groups--less clinical, more like real life--are arguably more revealing." (AMERICAN DEMOGRAPHICS) This article discusses how qualitative researchers are choosing to forgo the traditional focus group format and opting instead for "one-on-one interviews and borrowing cognitive science techniques, such as response latency and neuroimaging, to access emotions and feelings that consumers don't even know they're having."
