While many definitions of the self-concept exist, very few have been operationalized using neuroscience. Defining this concept in a way that allows us to quantify experiences that affect it gives us great power in validating advertisements' efficacy.

He unravels
the intricate concept of the "self" from neuroscientific and
psychological perspectives, exploring its crucial role in consumer behavior. It also explains how TV advertising influences self-concept development through storytelling.
Using EEG and eye-tracking, a new metric was created, which was used to gauge the success of the Super Bowl TV advertisement.

and explores the societal implications thereof.

• How the 'self' is a crucial factor in behavior and decision-making
