Square format logo for Alliant, a people-based marketing data and analytics company. Features the distinctive 'A' mark with teal accent and navy blue wordmark on white background. Alliant combines transactional data with psychology-driven insights to help marketers understand consumer behavior.
This white paper looks at how cognitive science, specifically attention, memory, decision-making, trust, and emotion, shapes the way consumers behave and what that means for marketers. The paper draws on well-known behavioral research to make its case. It covers principles such as the Invisible Gorilla study on inattentional blindness, the Serial Position Effect, the Von Restorff Effect, Iyengar and Lepper's jam study on choice overload, research on thin-slice judgments and first impressions, and the Iowa Gambling Task. The unifying framework is Daniel Kahneman's dual-system theory: most consumer decisions are driven by fast, intuitive, emotional thinking (System 1) rather than slow, deliberate reasoning (System 2). Each of the five principles comes with practical marketing guidance, from how to structure a list of benefits to how many product options to offer to how to build trust in the first few seconds of contact. The paper closes by framing cognitive science as a way to move beyond describing what consumers do and start predicting why they do it, which is the basis for more effective, targeted marketing strategy.

TV advertising that uses data to deliver an ad to a specific household on a TV screen.
The umbrella term for data-enabled TV advertising across streaming, CTV, addressable, and programmatic environments.
When a generative AI system produces information that sounds plausible but is incorrect or unsupported.
The use of machine learning and other AI techniques to improve marketing decisions—such as who to target, what to say, where to spend, and how to measure impact.
Using AI systems to automatically adjust decisions (bids, budgets, audience allocation, creative rotation) toward a goal.
An audience segment structured, documented, and formatted to be ingested, understood, and activated by AI-driven marketing systems — meeting the data quality, metadata completeness, and semantic annotation standards required for reliable AI system utilization.
Data that's structured, governed, and documented well enough to be used reliably in AI/ML systems (clear definitions, consistent formats, usable IDs, and known limitations).
The practice of structuring content so it's more likely to be surfaced or summarized accurately by AI-driven discovery experiences (AI search, assistants, summaries), not just classic SEO rankings. Encompasses GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization).
Data capturing opinions, preferences, beliefs, and stated intent (what people say they value or plan to do).
Methods used to assign credit for conversions to marketing touchpoints.
Data packaged into segments (audiences) that can be activated in marketing platforms and across channels.
Free content supported by ads. Streaming video content is available for free to viewers in exchange for watching ads (e.g., YouTube, Tubi).
Testing a model on historical data to evaluate performance.
Signals based on actions someone has taken (e.g., browsing patterns, content consumption, engagement, lifestyle, interests, etc.).
A field that combines psychology and economics to explain why real-world decisions often deviate from 'perfectly rational' behavior.
The stratum of audience intelligence that applies behavioral economics principles — loss aversion, default effects, social proof, present bias — to predict how consumer segments will respond to specific offer framings, pricing structures, and message architectures.
A controlled environment where parties can analyze or match data with privacy protections and restrictions.
Marketing data contributed by multiple participating organizations into a shared database (a 'co-op'), where the combined information is used to create insights, attributes, and audiences that individual members can use typically under defined governance and usage rules.
A predictable shortcut in thinking that influences decisions (often unconsciously), such as favoring familiar brands or over-weighting recent experiences.
A predictive model incorporating cognitive load, decision fatigue, mental bandwidth, and attentional dynamics — predicting not just whether a consumer is likely to act, but whether they are in the psychological state to evaluate and respond to a specific message or offer.
The methodology connecting cognitive-science principles — decision heuristics, cognitive load, information-processing style — to the Motivation Layer's decision-driver signals, modeling not just what motivates a person but how their cognitive processing shapes which messages they can act on.
The interdisciplinary study of how people think, learn, perceive, and make decisions (drawing from psychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics, and more).
The policies, legal requirements, and internal rules that govern how data can be collected, used, and shared.
Television devices connected to the internet that stream video content and allow advertisers to deliver targeted ads within streaming environments (e.g., Smart TV, Roku, Apple TV).
Permission given by a user for data collection and/or use under applicable policies/laws.
The internal needs or goals that push someone toward a decision (e.g., security, convenience).
The study of how people choose, buy, and form preferences—shaped by emotion, identity, social influence, and context.
Signals based on the environment (content/page/program) rather than a person's identity.
Data that meets the consent, quality, accuracy, and freshness standards required for contribution to and participation in a data cooperative — the baseline threshold below which contributed data degrades rather than enhances collective intelligence.
A data relationship structured around mutual, ongoing signal contribution and governed exchange, as distinct from a one-directional data license that transfers a fixed dataset for a fee with no ongoing contribution loop.
A browser-based identifier used to recognize users on a site or across sites (depending on type/permissions).
The concentration of corroborated behavioral, motivational, and demographic signals available within a data cooperative for a given audience segment — a measure of how thoroughly a segment is understood through aggregated first-party contributions of multiple member organizations.
Audience targeting for connected TV advertising using available identifiers and segment definitions.
A platform-ready audience built from your identifiers (e.g., CRM list) or defined segment criteria.
How often an attribute correctly reflects reality.
How much of your target population can be represented or matched in a dataset.
Traditional television that leverages data for planning of a media buy. More of an offline planning activity that leverages data from varying channels.
How recently data was updated and how quickly it reflects real-world changes.
How well a dataset is fit to support a specific marketing use case—based on factors like accuracy, completeness/coverage, freshness, consistency, and clear documentation of how the data was created and can be used.
The specific psychological factors that most strongly influence an individual's choices, tradeoffs, and timing (what they prioritize when deciding).
A measure of how thoroughly a consumer's or segment's decision drivers, values, and motivational architecture are understood and modeled within a given data record or audience build. A data quality dimension specific to motivation-layer data.
The unique combination of decision drivers, values, motivational priorities, and psychological propensities that produces a predictable and repeatable response pattern for a given individual, household, or segment — including the message register that will trigger action.
The category of audience intelligence derived from motivation data, decision drivers, and psychometric modeling — intelligence that explains why consumers decide, not merely what they have done or are likely to do based on past behavior alone.
A data quality dimension measuring how recently the decision drivers, motivational attributes, and psychological propensities within a consumer record have been updated and validated — reflecting how quickly motivation data ages relative to demographic data.
Attributes that describe who a person is such as their age, gender, ethnicity, occupation, marital status, education, household composition, and more.
Identity matching based on direct, high-confidence identifiers (e.g., the same hashed email).
A type of identity graph focused on connecting devices to individuals or households.
A record of actions taken (e.g., 'added to cart,' 'watched video,' 'opened email').
The application layer where Motivation Layer intelligence is translated into designed brand, product, or service experiences — not only ad targeting; the bridge between knowing why a person is likely to act and shaping the experience that meets them at that motivational state.
Linear, ad-supported content delivered via streaming (e.g., Pluto TV, Tubi).
Creating or transforming input variables to improve model performance.
An input variable a model uses—such as a demographic attribute, behavior signal, purchase indicator, or motivation measure.
Data you collect directly from your customers and owned touchpoints (site/app/CRM).
How often someone sees your ad in a given time period.
A control that limits how many times the same viewer or household sees an ad.
AI that creates new content such as text, images, audio, video, or code based on patterns learned from large datasets.
The measurable probability that an AI-driven search, discovery, or recommendation system surfaces a brand, product, or organization in a generative response when a buyer researches relevant category queries — the AI-era successor to search ranking.

Data that describes the underlying why behind consumer decisions including the attitudes, values, needs, and decision drivers that influence choices.
An audience segment constructed from Motivation Layer signals — decision drivers, values, and psychological propensities — rather than from declared demographic filters or platform-side behavioral matching; built from why people are likely to act.
The accuracy and consistency with which a dataset's motivation-layer attributes (decision drivers, values priorities, psychometric scores, behavioral economics signals) reflect the true underlying psychological characteristics of the consumers they represent.
A discrete, measurable data point that indicates an underlying consumer decision driver or motivational state, as distinct from a behavioral signal (records an action) or an intent signal (records research activity).
The measurable gap between a consumer's declared or modeled motivational profile — decision drivers, values, psychological propensities — and their actual observed decision behavior; isolates individuals/segments for whom belief-action alignment cannot be assumed.
The state in which a consumer's motivational architecture is aligned with the conditions required for a specific purchase decision — distinct from purchase intent or in-market status; measures psychological alignment, not behavioral proximity.
A measure of how many independent cooperative member sources confirm or reinforce a given consumer attribute, behavioral signal, or motivational profile element — the co-op equivalent of academic citation count.
Attribution models that attempt to assign fractional credit across multiple touches leading to conversion.
Traditional cable or satellite providers. Refers to any service provider that delivers video programming services (e.g., Comcast, DirecTV).
MVPD (Multichannel Video Programming Distributor)
The process of converting offline/CRM identifiers into platform-usable audiences.
Video content delivered via the internet, bypassing traditional cable/satellite. Distribution model for services like streaming apps and connected TV platforms (e.g., Hulu, Netflix).
When a model performs well on training data but poorly on new data because it learned noise, not signal.
Data organized around people/households using stable identity, designed for consistent understanding across channels.
Data attributes that remain accurate and consistent across device changes, channel shifts, and identifier deprecation because they are anchored to the person or household rather than to a device, cookie, or session-level identifier.
The set of motivational signals, decision drivers, and psychological propensities that exist and are measurable in a consumer record before any observable behavioral action occurs. Enables prediction based on who someone is and what drives them, not on what they have already done.
AI/ML used to forecast future outcomes like likelihood to convert, churn, respond, or purchase a category.
Using data and statistical methods to forecast likely future outcomes (e.g., propensity to purchase).
Model outputs (often scores) that estimate likelihood of a behavior or attribute.
Building models that estimate outcomes using patterns in historical data.
Identity matching based on patterns and likelihood (e.g., signals suggesting two devices belong to the same person).
The automated buying and selling of TV advertising using software and data signals, allowing media to be transacted and optimized in real time across streaming and digital video environments.
A score estimating the likelihood that someone will take a specific action (e.g., purchase, subscribe).
Data describing attitudes, motivations, preferences, and decision drivers.
A modeled score estimating the likelihood of a consumer taking a specific action, derived primarily from motivational attributes, values, and decision driver profiles rather than behavioral history alone. Most valuable when behavioral history is absent.
The proportion of a target population for which psychometric attributes — motivational profiles, values scores, decision driver classifications, cognitive style indicators — are available and validated within a given dataset.
The category of marketing audience intelligence derived from applying psychometric modeling, cognitive science methods, and values-based segmentation to consumer data — producing attributes and scores that reflect how consumers psychologically evaluate decisions.
Modeling approaches used to quantify psychological characteristics (attitudes, motivations, traits) from observed data or structured measures.
Data describing what people have bought, when, and sometimes how often.

Artificially generated data designed to resemble real data patterns, often used to test systems or protect privacy.
Modeled motivational signal data generated to extend coverage into segments where directly observed decision-driver data is sparse, used to fill gaps in psychometric modeling while explicitly labeled as modeled — distinct from directly measured Motivation Signal.
The stratum of audience intelligence that sits beneath behavioral and demographic data, containing the decision drivers, values, and psychological propensities that explain why behavior happens before it registers as behavior.
