Utilizing five MNCs as a sample in a population of 15 registered media firms in Nigeria, the study uses grounded theory methodology and focus group discussions to uncover the reality of emotional influence on strategic decisions and multiple regression analysis to test for the statistical significance of independent variables on the dependent variable. The output shows that neuro-economics contributes significantly to all economic decision-making in all sectors, including the media industry.Although research generalization is challenging due to economic variations in different markets, the report posts resourceful information for policy-making decisions, productivity, and wealth creation.
