Conclusion. Einstein – “the intuitive brain is a gift.. the logical brain is a faithful servant.” Emotional vs rational.
Point that it is both of those things TOGETHER. There was a tendency to think that ti’s one or the other

Bridge being built on brain.. you can complete one word without the other. Emotional & intelligence.

Here’s a graphic representation that demonstrates the effectiveness of Subconscious Response testing. As you can see, we capture the brain’s true response to stimuli in the range of 300- 500 milliseconds. That’s before the brain has a chance to “process” the stimulus and to create a socially-appropriate and filtered response to it. When you record responses at that level – precognitively, before the consumer’s had a chance to “think about it” and massage their response – you get measurements that are accurate, that are highly predictive, and that are recorded before biases and diversions set in.
Testing at the precognitive level requires a much smaller sample size than testing at the articulated response phase. In general, the feedback from just 20 “brains” more than meets the rigorous scientific standards for predictability. By contrast, by using conventional methods like a survey would require several hundred responses to average out a statistically reliable measurement, but that’s because you have to filter out the biases, the variables, and other noise.
With dense-array brain coverage, all you need are 20 consumers for scientifically valid results.
