“…These studies deal with a "general interest focused on research methodology" (Jacoby, Johar, & Morrin, 1998, p. 321). Some of the earlier examples of general methodological contributions include Weinstein, Weinstein, and Drozdenko's (1984) explication of brain wave analysis, the methodological comparison of the List of Values and the Rokeach Value Survey by Beatty et al (1985) and Nevid's (1984) introduction of electroencephalographic (EEG) methods for assessing the impact of advertising stimuli. A variety of general methodological contributions, ranging from the quantitative analysis of in-depth interviews (Bolton & Bronkhorst, 1991) and computerized sociometric marketing (Bainbridge, 1991) to marketing clustering techniques (Holbrook, 2001), are evident within this broad category.…”
