We Follow the Evidence.

Behavior is how subconscious beliefs, needs, and wants are truly expressed. Consistent patterns of behavior over time are the only reliable indicator of what people actively believe and want. We track and analyze over 50 years of cultural studies and human factors that drive consumer choice.


We provide next-level actionable solutions for companies, institutions, and agencies worldwide, from manufacturing, marketing, and the experience industry to cultural, educational, and government agencies. Using cultural analysis, you will learn not only why people make the choices they do, but what they are most likely to do in the future.

The Center for Cultural Studies & Analysis decodes how consumers determine value in products, concepts, experiences, and ideas.


Principals King and O’Boyle have worked and presented in Japan, Singapore, Mexico, Great Britain, France, Sweden, Malaysia, and Hungary. Our think-tank clients and colleagues are global: Paris, Greenwich, the University of Utrecht, Universidad de las Américas (Puebla, MX), Singapore Management University, and the Asia-Pacific resources of the East-West Center (U. of Hawaii, Honolulu).


The Center for Cultural Studies & Analysis maintains a select list of researchers, data bases, and subject experts for input as needed in any subject area as well as in problem definition and solution-finding, brain research, cultural documentation and marketing intelligence and application.
