✍️ Define your terms: Breaking down the neuro-babble BS | Featuring Pedro Almeida PhD | MindSet Episode #82

MindSet

HCD MindSet had an insightful conversation with Pedro Almedia Ph.D. to discuss how the world of "neuromarketing" needs to be cautious about both the words that are thrown around and the claims that are made. Pedro, Kathryn, and Michelle break down major issues within the industry (including the misunderstanding between biometrics vs psychophysiology) and provide some potential solutions for how to stay valid and reliable when doing research in this space.
