Our Foundation

At Element Human we don't just measure reactions.

We uncover the subconscious signals that shape attention, emotion and memory, the building blocks of consumer behavior. Our proprietary Behavioral Learning Models (BLMs) simulate human experience and predict how creativity performs in the real world.

Our methodology is rooted in three disciplines

System 1 > System 2

95% of decisions happen automatically, driven by emotion, mental shortcuts, and memory triggers.
We use facial coding, eye-tracking, and implicit association testing to measure true, subconscious response.

Mental Availability > Loyalty

As marketing scientist Byron Sharp shows in How Brands Grow, brands grow by being easy to notice, remember, and buy, not by increasing loyalty.
Our research captures emotional salience, memory encoding, and attention, the raw signals that power consumer behaviour.

Brand Drives Long-Term Growth

Short-term metrics (clicks, surveys, engagement) don’t predict brand impact. As proven in The Long and the Short of It by Les Binet and Peter Field, emotionally driven brand campaigns are 2x more profitable than rational ones.
We provide the System 1 evidence that links creative to real-world outcomes: awareness, recall, and action.
