self-segment

To choose a product or service on the basis of factors such as quality and price, rather than because of targeted marketing.

Internet business is much more a form of supply marketing than of demand marketing. It is creating new segments, new needs, new attitudes and new behaviors, and customers tend to self-segment themselves to a large extent (e.g. through the way they search on the Web, the information they release on themselves, etc.).

Similarly Kimes and Wirtz (2003) stated that well designed rate fences that are logic and intuitively understood allow consumers to self-segment based on their willingness-to-pay and enables companies tomore effectively manage the different segments to their particular needs on the value-price continuum

To place oneself in a particular group, for example when responding to a survey.

The aim of the present study was twofold. First, to empirically test a novel interviewing technique whereby the witness self-segments their memory of an event into their own discrete parameter-bound ‘topic boxes’ at the outset, before engaging in an exhaustive free recall retrieval attempt (followed by interviewer probing) within the parameters of each topic box in turn. […] The WAFA method enables witnesses to impose an individual parameter-bound structure to their recall by self-segmenting the to-be-remembered event at the outset, before then freely recalling everything they can remember, following which they respond to interviewer prompts within each of these segments.

We encourage methods that promote a platform for all viewpoints, not just polarizing views, to be heard. Researchers self-segmenting into smaller, niche conferences or organizations that only highlight one perspective are a disservice to the field and have the potential to undercut public health.

To cause a thing to acquire appropriate size by a planned process.

As the solution becomes more concentrated, in reality this least solvated block will begin to experience increased self-segment interaction in order to decrease the less preferred polymer–solvent interactions, while minimizing contact with the remaining two blocks.

Spontaneous separation of species in a droplet may lead to asymmetric structures. Weitz’s group investigated the fabrication of Janus particles by means of thermally induced phase separation and selective adsorption of colloids in droplets in capillary-based co-axial flow focusing devices. Aqueous droplets containing the mixture of polyacrylamide (PAAm, served as the hydrogel) and poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) microgels (PNIPAm, served as the nanoparticles) were proved to be competent in forming self-segmented morphology.
