PersonaSmart is a model of human behavior based on a multilayered analysis of decision making. It goes well beyond “emotional driver” research or attitudinal analysis to apply a scientific and rigorous approach to understanding markets.
Within PersonaSmart we separate the elements of human decision making and tackle them logically, one by one:
We have developed a unique model of Motivational Values, Worldview and Heuristics; language and context need to be researched for each set of circumstances.
By engaging with us you can benefit from our research in this area, while saving time and money to achieve a deeper understanding of your customers, their unmet needs and their experience.
Contact us today for a presentation of the principles and case studies demonstrating the effectiveness of this unique methodology in practice.
Segmedica helps you throughout the process from project conception to analysis and can help guide implementation through on-site workshops with the marketing and sales teams.
HealthVoice® is a technique involving audio-capture of real conversations between a HCP (healthcare provider) and a patient. These conversations may take place in a doctor’s office, a clinic, a hospital, or anywhere these interactions occur on a regular basis. The Segmedica Difference is our follow-up to these encounters, using both qualitative and quantitative methods to capture additional information about the patients and HCPs. We then analyze the words, phrases, and interviews using psycho-linguistic techniques in addition to identifying keywords and language patterns. The end result is a deep understanding of what was said and why it was said. All physicians are drawn from our HealthAcuity® panels and are fully practographically and psychologically profiled.
Your deliverables include full digital recordings and transcripts of all the conversations. Our research is fully HIPAA compliant and 100% quality controlled to ensure the accuracy and effectiveness of the conversations. Our objective is high-gain conversations that will have an impact on your marketing objectives.
More than the traditional “sentiment” monitors, SocialInsight combines data with personality. Segmedica is known for its psychological approach to market research. Now we apply this expertise to social media posts. Our technique is simple yet elegant. We monitor a multitude of social media sites and combine what is being said with why it is being said. Unlike the majority of social media monitors, Segmedica dives deep to uncover themes in conversational language, using psychology-based natural language analysis. Our skills range from simple search and analysis to combining SocialInsight with other modalities for a rich set of insights into consumers as patients. Our process tracks patients’ experience to compile a full story on what patients think and feel not only as patients but as consumer/patients. We deliver a full report analyzing language and conversations using our exclusive HLA (HealthLinquisticAnalysis)™ process.
SelfInspire® is a qualitative research method in which a dyad or group operates without a human moderator. Employed where there is a need to delve deeply into the psychological reasons for certain behaviors, it offers considerable research benefits including:
• More responsibility and energy from respondents
• Unlikely leaders emerge
• Language is more pure and meaningful
• Emotional insights are much deeper
• Unexpected ideas arise
The sessions are managed entirely by the respondents, who usually move through a series of tasks by sequentially opening numbered envelopes. The encounter is observed by a professionally trained researcher who will ensure the interaction meets its research objectives. What makes this research so powerful is the combination of unaided discussion, a non-threatening environment, and Segmedica’s use of psychology to help us understand not only what they are saying, but why they are saying it and how it impacts your markets. SelfInspire® is unique to Segmedica, an innovator in healthcare market research.
Ethnography is a technique which is used to observe behaviors in a natural setting such as a patient’s home or place of work. Our ethnography team consists of a trained observer and a videographer who are deployed to spend a day with the respondent and capture the nuances of everyday life as well as focus on issues that are germane to the research project. While in the field, our ethnographer will also conduct impromptu interviews as events occur that stimulate discussion relevant to the marketing objectives of our client. The result is a very deep understanding of how a patient or other respondent thinks, feels, and acts outside of a controlled environment like focus group facilities or telephone interviews.
Traditional satisfaction research focuses on how well the company performs across a range of areas including product performance, sales support, call center performance, etc. Segmedica goes one step further by applying its unique batteries of psychometric questions and images to better understand what drives customer satisfaction and how to leverage this to create strong customer commitment and loyalty.
Segmedica provides a wide range of tools to support your customer satisfaction program, from simple web-based surveys for tracking satisfaction to conducting more advanced needs-based research. Segmedica also offers robust customer satisfaction segmentation using a proprietary methodology grounded in psychology.
At the earliest stages of a product or service, marketing teams need to become educated. One aspect of this education process is market research. Landscaping, or Insight Mining research, is potentially the least focused and most exploratory research in the marketing process and is usually carried out qualitatively.
That being said, we still have a responsibility to develop a result that is accurate and informative and which has practical use to our clients.
We do this by laying down a solid psychology-based appreciation of the market and by focusing our research on thematic elements which have applicability to potential sales and marketing tactics.
For marketing teams entering completely new areas, our customized workshops provide a flying start.
SelfInspire® – Self-moderated research.

Like segmentation, positioning needs to be built on a solid appreciation of market needs, both rational and emotional. Positioning statements must speak to the fundamental needs of the market and include both rational and emotional selling points.
A key decision for a marketing team is whether to develop positioning internally and test it with the market or to let the market drive positioning through research. Either approach can be appropriate in different circumstances. We advise clients on the best use of research in either approach.
We psycho-profile all our respondents and ensure the emotional needs of the market are accommodated. The human brain processes information both intellectually and emotionally, and it is important that positioning and messaging satisfy both parts of the personality.
Segmedica can help by providing a wide range of services to fit your needs, from a small-scale, web-based survey to full-scale market sizing. For product development, conjoint and other advanced analytics can be incorporated to help identify key product specifications or services that should be included and their expected impact on the market. Ethnographic services are also available to see how a product is actually being used or to assess performance. Segmedica’s psychometric profiling can add another unique dimension by identifying who is likely to be early adopters.
The Segmedica Difference: With its extensive panels and in-house recruitment center, Segmedica is equipped to field projects, even for the most hard-to-reach respondents, quickly and cost-effectively.
The diagram below illustrates how our brains work and how our subconscious minds drive behavior and decision-making.
Only psychology-based research uncovers the underlying personality of respondents that is critical to understanding not only what is being said, but more importantly, why and within what context.
Understanding the personality (which rarely changes in an individual throughout his or her life) allows for a much deeper understanding of what is needed and how to fulfill those needs. Emotions are superficial and transient, and research that is not scientifically based can lead to misguided marketing campaigns. Once you understand the psychological makeup of a target market, you can craft messages or define strategies to a much more effective level.
RapidInsight is a quantitative survey tool designed with you in mind. We can program and complete short surveys in a matter of days. When time is of the essence, our team understands the need for a rapid response.
A major benefit is access to our HealthAcuity® panel, which is the most comprehensively profiled panel in the industry. Within a very short time, we can provide the data you asked for and overlay it with valuable insights into the psychology of the respondents. Not only will you know more about the respondents, but you will also have actionable data, instantly.

New research by Segmedica uses our Patient Adherence and Health Engagement segmentation to investigate sentiment and behaviors in two areas of behavioral influence – macrotrends, such as climate change, and retail healthcare delivery.
Market segmentation is a staple project for all businesses and Segmedica is very expert in the art. As well as the classical attitudinal/behavioral segmentations, we offer advanced techniques proven to add insight and actionability without adding cost or time while eliminating risk of failure…
Healthcare in the US and around the world is going into an accelerated change mode. Some of these changes will profoundly impact the way we think about healthcare marketing and market research.
This webinar covers a number of areas, including changing sites of care, the impact of COVID-19, telehealth, and interoperable data…
Segmentation can be enormously helpful in marketing, selling, marketing communications, clinical trials, call centers, and in any organization that has a healthcare touch point with consumers and patients.
In this webinar we review some common pitfalls to avoid and some advanced tools for saving very significant amounts of time and money while developing a more meaningful and actionable segmentation…
If you are concerned about the health and wellness of the African American community and how to encourage engagement with healthcare and with wellness behaviors, this short webinar is for you. Making up 14% of the US population, this is one of the least healthy groups and the most in need of help. In this webinar, we will cover…
They have been around since 1926. They were adopted by the US military. One helped bring Apollo 13 home. Even Marxists have used them. Focus groups – they have been a staple for as long as any of us can remember. But do we use them appropriately, and can they be turbocharged?
COVID-19 is still a major impact on consumer behaviors, especially their willingness to attend medical facilities for routine visits, sickness visits, elective procedures, and tests. Our most recent study tracks consumer sentiment and behaviors since the pandemic started and provides vital insights into how to bring consumers/patients/members back to routine medical activities and avoid the costs of delayed treatment…
Although COVID-19 procedures and safeguards are in place, will patients come in for their checkups, their elective surgeries, or treatments? The answer is some will, but many won’t – so how will each person decide and how can they be influenced?
Adherence is the last frontier for pharma, devices, diagnostics, and other manufacturers. Despite a general understanding that people often do not follow the rationally best course of action, we have mostly deployed rational argument rather than psychology to improve adherence. In many cases, adherence is a teachable skill.
Join this short webinar for an overview of the psychology of adherence and proven methods of improving it…
Receiving and absorbing a message or concept is a process of learning. The mission of a message is to be understood and committed to long-term memory so it is recalled when purchase or usage decisions are being made and influences choices.
Understanding the impacts of personality and physiology on how professionals and consumers absorb, categorize, and retain messages is essential to interpreting research results…
Can’t you understand plain English?!
Actually, many people cannot. For 28% of the US population, English is not a first language. Globally for 85% of people, English is not their first language.
This webinar will explore the continuously evolving landscape of digital healthcare, but more importantly, how and why consumers and patients use (or ignore) these tools expressly designed to connect them with providers and wellness initiatives. Personality typing provides a comprehensive approach to evaluating digital healthcare tools…
The first duty of a message is to create a lasting memory. No matter how impactful the message is at delivery, without creating a recallable memory, it isn’t effective.
This isn’t just a matter of simple repetition; the old adage that it takes nine repetitions to create a lasting impression has no science behind it.
Memory…
Market segmentation projects are costly and can be risky. In this webinar, we will review the reasons why segmentations can go wrong and alternative approaches to ensure success.
Go beyond conventional interrogational techniques and learn what to look for in an advanced qualitative design. Examples include:
It’s hard to believe, but instant segmentation does work. Based on personality types, they provide a fundamental view of how consumers make purchase and use decisions in the consumer packaged goods and food and beverage markets.
Not all customer experiences are the same. Different types of people make different decisions and show different behaviors. People behave according to their personality, which is the most fundamental driver of healthcare behavior.
You need customer experience research that explains their behavioral drivers and how to influence them. Our JourneySmart™…
Join us for the results of a pilot study in which we asked respondents of different personality types what were the important drivers and barriers to returning to normal healthcare activities and have built a “soft model” for predicting behaviors as events occur. These models work for the US population as a whole and are different for…
Many patients and consumers have radically altered their healthcare behaviors since March 2020. Annual physicals, elective procedures, presentation of symptoms, dental work, eye exams, and all similar activities have migrated to telehealth (where possible) or simply been deferred indefinitely.
Although COVID-19 procedures and safeguards are…
The pandemic has introduced more people to Telepsychiatry while also increasing levels of anxiety and even panic among patients. Our just published ConnexionPoints® Telepsychiatry Under COVID-19 study draws on the experiences of patients with a range of conditions and of psychiatrists, psychologists, and counselors to explore the benefits…
Do you need to know how patients and members will behave in the next year based on changes in the COVID-19 situation? How and when will they access the healthcare system for non-COVID-19-related treatments?
It would be pointless to ask them! The results would be entirely speculative. This type of decision is based on a range of factors which…
So said C. Everett Koop, a former Surgeon General of the United States – and he’s right. How can you persuade your members and patients to take their medicine? If drugs are, by and large, cost effective, then it means that not taking them costs money when all is netted out.
The significant impacts of COVID-19 have not yet been felt and will take at least two years to play out in the industrialized world.
They will include:
COVID-19 has forced patients and medical facilities to expand telehealth and other alternative means of medical interaction. This means that the large number of patients who were not comfortable with telehealth and digital interactions before are now getting used to them. Will this last beyond COVID-19?
Moving the adherence needle is not easy and you will not make all patients’ adherent, however, the application of sound principles will make a tangible difference, boosting bottom lines and improving outcomes, making your products more valuable to your provider and payer clients.
In this webinar, we examine the concepts of self-efficacy…
COVID-19 procedures and safeguards are in place and health systems are advertising that they are open for regular business. But will the patients come in for their checkups, their elective surgeries, or treatments? The answer is some will, but many won’t, so how will each person decide and how can they be influenced? Join us in this webinar…
xsperient has published a ConnexionPoints® syndicated Patient Journey for COVID-19 alongside its current and future COVID-19 studies.
While many of you are in the front line for COVID-19 and understand firsthand the COVID-19 patients’ journey through the healthcare system, this report provides the essential background to patients’…
