| Research Abstract |
This study presents a proposal for a novel evaluation method to extract personal preferences implicitly using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), a new technique for measuring brain blood flows. Surgical operation and/or contrast media and other apparatus are unnecessary. It has recently been identified as a safe and low-cost signal acquisition tool for measuring cortical activity with monitoring of the oxygen concentration of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in humans. This pilot study demonstrated the potential of the NIRS method to extract personal preferences implicitly
