Demographics and Personality Trait Enrichment

As Zoomph collects your relevant social content, the platform constantly enriches your social data to provide you deeper insights into your content and consumers. The following is a brief on how Zoomph enriches demographic and personality data for social profiles. 

Personality Traits

Zoomph analyzes the following personality traits:

  • Inventive & curious vs. consistent & cautious
  • Efficient & organized vs. easy-going & careless
  • Outgoing and energetic vs. solitary & reserved
  • Friendly & compassionate vs. analytical & detached
  • Sensitive & nervous vs. secure & confident

A person can belong to multiple categories. In order to identify these traits, we initially identify people who explicitly self-identify themselves in any category. We then study the social behaviors of those populations to learn about their broader characteristics, and to predict additional traits. 

Demographic Data

For demographic data, Zoomph does not solely depend on social network data because of the limited/sparse availability. Zoomph applies a patented formula that currently predicts gender, and age range by connecting social data with public and private data sets (e.g. US Census data).

Gender

  • For gender, Zoomph uses a combination of characteristics that include: 
  • First name
  • Gender lists for celebrities 
  • Self-disclosed gender cues - i.e. people who self-identify as a 'mom' are likely female.

Age 

  • For age, Zoomph uses a combination of characteristics that include: 
  • First name 
  • Location data 
  • Social network preferences
  • Birthday lists for celebrities
  • Self-disclosed age cues - i.e. people who self-identify as a 'grandmother'

Zoomph's Age Generation ranges are based on the following birth years:

  • Baby Boomer – 1946 to 1964
  • Gen X - 1965 to 1980
  • Millennial - 1981 to 1996
  • Gen Z – 1997+
