Behavioral Research

Know your users better than anyone

User research through the lens of behavioral science.

Consumer insights teams fundamentally focus on answering three questions:

  • 01 How people perceive the products and services available to them.
  • 02 What factors limit the behaviors you want to see.
  • 03 How we can solve these difficulties.

There are many research firms in the market that offer to solve these challenges. They're capable of finding relevant insights, but only intermittently. Sometimes they're useful, sometimes not, which makes their value highly volatile and uncertain.

Heurística Lab's methodology delivers superior results.

Our Behavioral Research service is built on the scientific and practical principles of behavioral science. This approach guides the entire research process (from project design, through defining the right questions, to analysis and reporting) allowing us to cohesively solve complex commercial and social mysteries.

"Together with Heurística Lab, we're developing a new lens on problems we deal with routinely, where the added value is clear: their experience in planning, processes, tools, and analysis lets them deliver the added value we need."

What a study reveals about your users

Heurística Lab's research projects reveal the factors behind your users' decision-making and behavior from angles you haven't yet considered.

Mental models used during their decision process.
Heuristics and biases, behavioral enablers and barriers.
Cognitive factors like attention, sensory perception, memory, and emotion.
Behavior analysis based on utility calculations, probability estimation, and risk perception.

The average hides the individual

Two groups can have almost the same average and still live in opposite realities. That's why we don't just look at the mean: we look at the full distribution.

Each dot is a person. A bar chart would show two nearly identical averages. Illustrative data.
