Abstract
Distributed mechanisms are provided for implementing a neurological sentiment tracking system to collect and analyze consumer and business sentiment. Neuro-response data as well as optional survey and interview data may be collected from subjects about personal finance expectations, anticipated hiring expectations, views on prospects for the economy in the short and long term, purchase expectations, etc. Neuro-response data collection mechanisms such as Electroencephalography (EEG) and/or facial emotion encoding can be used along with surveys and interviews to collect data from subjects in a variety of environments. Collected data may be aggregated to aid in economic forecasting and modeling. Data may be continuously collected to provide high temporal resolution. Analysis may also be performed to determine impacts of particular events on sentiment.
