TY - JOUR T1 - Decoding Neural Responses To Emotion in Television Commercials JF - Journal of Advertising Research JO - J Advert Res SP - 193 LP - 204 DO - 10.2501/JAR-2016-016 VL - 56 IS - 2 AU - Feng Shen AU - Jon D.

The researchers pinpointed brain responses to emotions in advertising at the gyrus level—the ridge between the two clefts on the cerebral surface of the brain—indicating the importance of the three key dimensions of emotion—appeal, engagement, and empowerment—in measuring feelings about advertising and marketing communications.
