Participants were all right-handed, with normal visual acuity and normal history of any psychiatric or medical illness.. compared with each other and with the control condition by SPM99 and SPM 5.. 2.2.2 Stimuli Photos of 9 different daily goods (audio speaker, radio, desk lamp, telephone, clock, scale, etc.) were used in the experiment. After identifying the subjects’ preference on product design at pre-test, 15 photos of preferred design and 15 photos of unpreferred design photos were presented (Figure 2).. 3.1 Neural activations Neural activations are presented in Table 1, Table 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4.. 3. RESULTS. 3.2. Product beauty itself cannot touch consumers’ emotion deeply Compared with ugly designs, beautiful product designs activated the lingual gyrus only. The lingual gyrus is one part of the visual cortex and related to visual recognition (Fink, Marshall, Weiss, Shsh, Toni, Halligan and Zilles, 2000). This result implies that consumers are “seeing” the products without any emotional responses. On the other hand, preferred product design leads more activation in insula, an area related to emotional response, especially in detection of physical arousal such as sexual arousal (Critchley, Rotshtein, Nagai, O’Doherty, Mathias and Dolan 2005; Iaria, 2008).. 2.2.3 Experimental Design The experiment consisted of two experimental conditions (one preferred design and one unpreferred design condition) and one control condition (fixation). (50 sec/ block, new image in every 2.5 sec, each image presented for 2 sec, blank for 0.5 sec, within subject). 2.2.4 Brain Data Acquisition and Analysis The data was acquired by using an ISOL 3.0 Tesla forte MRI scanner (TR=2500ms, TE=35ms, 5mm no gap 20 slices, 64X64 matrix, FOV 240mm, flip angle 80) and analyzed using a random effects analysis (p<0.01, uncorrected). The results of experimental conditions were. 3.3 Preferred design moves consumers’ body implicitly One remarkable finding in this study is the activation of the precentral and the postcentral gyri in preferred product. 138.

These regions are known as motor and somatosensory areas and are also activated when people imagine movements and touches (Bocher, Chisin, Parag, Freedman, MeirWeil, Lester, Mishani and Bonne, 2001; Mouras, Stoleru, Bittoun, Glutron, Issac, Paradis and Burnod, 2003). In the experiment, we didn’t ask participants neither to move their body nor to imagine movement. However, they seem to have imagined themselves to touch, grip, rub the product and to have tried to feel the sense of touch automatically and implicitly. Furthermore, the participants did not see the product passively, but interacted with the product actively.. These findings suggest that the beauty of the product design itself cannot evoke emotional response alone and therefore consumer research should be preceded when a company plans to launch a new product design. Especially, present study is meaningful in that it discovered the limitation of existing method of measurement that measure the emotional response about good design by self-report. Also, when they make new product design in business, they should have idea what design moves consumer’s mind.. 4. CONCLUSION REFERENCES 1. P.H.

The results showed that brain activation is connected with only visual process during good design condition, but brain activations are connected with emotion and visual process during preferred product design condition.. 139.

Her researches are related to neural basis of human decision making – especially consumer behavior and economic decision making. This includes both how we learn the value of goods and actions in the world and how we use this information to decide between different actions. Recent work has particularly emphasized the function of the midbrain dopamine system and how this interacts with areas in the prefrontal and parietal cortices to produce decisions. Main research theme is to investigate how individual (e.g. age, personality) and environmental (e.g. social context) differences are reflected concomitantly in brain function and behavior.. Weil, H.
