Abstract

Neuromarketing is an emerging field that combines neuroscience and marketing to better understand the factors influencing consumer decisions. Consumer purchasing behavior has long been a focus for marketers seeking to create compelling advertisements and increase engagement. It relies on objective tools to identify consumer responses through physiological and neurological measurements. This research aims to apply brain science to marketing research, specifically using electroencephalography (EEG) and eye-tracking to determine whether a consumer will purchase a product. “The association between physiological reactions and self-reported purchase intention to marketing cues was investigated by analysing physiological data from 210 participants. The link between the independent factors (product category and advertisement type) and the dependent variable (purchase intention) was investigated using descriptive, correlational, and regression methods. The results confirm that knowledge of neuromarketing significantly boosts practicality (β = 0.726, p < 0.001), which enhances marketing efforts (β = 0.611, p < 0.001) and social media communication effectiveness (β = 0.712, p < 0.001).” The study found that both frontal lobe alpha and beta wave activity (neural reactivity) and fixation duration and number of fixations (visual attention) were strong predictors of purchase intention, with fixation duration being the strongest predictor. Results suggest that emotional advertising elicited greater purchase intention than informational advertising, with the effects of emotion moderated by product category. This research presents evidence for a model that uses EEG and eye-tracking in conjunction to develop insights into consumer behavior. The paper provides an immediately applicable framework for marketers trying to revamp their advertising strategy.

Abstract

objective of the research to develop a proposed model for the use of lean accounting and target cost in the Kufa cement plant to reduce costs as they are among the most important techniques of strategic cost management in the field of cost accounting and management accounting, The research was conducted on kufa cement factory data to show the effect of using lean accounting techniques and target costing to reduce costs.

The research was built on a main hypothesis that the use of lean accounting techniques and target costing leads to reducing costs in the kufa cement factory in manner that is commensurate with the requirements of the modern manufacturing environment.

The research reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that the techniques of lean accounting and target costing are among the important techniques that reduce costs in the life cycle of the product, from the planning stage to research and development, without compromising the quality of the product. The research reached came out with a number of recommendations, including the necessity of moving the kufa cement factory to the two techniques of lean accounting and target costing, due to the multiplicity of needs and desires of customers and change in benefits and from of products, as well as their role in reducing costs.
