Abstract: Revolution in online retail has led to a paradigm shift in customers' shopping behaviour making customer retention relatively tougher. E-retailers need to understand more in depth about their e-customers to provide right offers to right people. Though click stream analysis has been solving e-business problems, still recommendation systems on e-commerce and digital marketing are far from perfect. Thus, a more perfect consumer behaviour model is the need of hour. This study finds that effective adoption of cognitive science in the click stream analysis can identify customers' thinking patterns for decision-making. The proposed system adopted the conceptual framework of cognitive architecture namely adaptive control of thought rational (ACT-R) to identify various cognitive styles of online users using click stream data. The customer segments based on their cognitive styles provides a deeper insight to the e-retailers, which can be best leveraged to offer better personalised marketing advertisements and thereby increasing customer retention rate.
