Let's see what you were paying attention to.
Trivia show, sip it fast now.
Here we go.
Round one, the psychology of the poor.
Question one.
In a famous study from Stanford and Caltech, participants were told they were drinking two different wines, one priced at $5, one at $45.
While they were drinking, researchers put them in an MRI scanner.
What did the brain scans actually reveal?
Both wines activated the brain equally.
The $5 wine triggered more pleasure responses.
The brain showed more pleasure when drinking the wine people believed cost $45.
Price had no measurable effect on brain activity at all.
The correct answer is C. The brain showed more pleasure when people believed they were drinking the $45 wine.
Not because the wine was different.
because the number was different.
The price didn't just change their opinion.
It changed their actual brain activity.
That's not marketing.
That's neuroscience.
