心理變數Psychographic)是市場行銷學的一種技巧,透過對人口進行問卷調查某個特定議題的內容。問卷調查包括有一系列的心理特質命題(Psychographic statements,通常有大約50條),這些命題通常在選擇之時,設問卷者心目中已有大概一系列認為可能會影響消費者進行消費的因素。從受訪者對問卷內各項心理特質命題的傾向(極同意、同意、中立、不同意、極不同意),行銷者可以找出商品在不同層面的客戶在個性、價值觀、態度、興趣、生活態度等各項變數的差異,從而更有效的針對特定客戶群而進行更有效的行銷策略。

搜集得來的數據會先行進行factor analysis,找出各項可能影響客戶消費的因素;之後再進行cluster analysis,把受訪者按照分析出來的因素來加以分類。最後透過心理變數而劃分的市場區間(Market segments)稱為「心理變數區間」(Psychographic segments)。
