Episode 137 of our book read/podcast covering major topics
in various fields of psychology moves us into something new, with a discussion of FAN PSYCHOLOGY! This Spring we are going to be going chapter to chapter in a book we both co-authored. Here you will find commentary, discussion, and insights on what drives fan behavior!
In this episode Daniel and Thomas introduce the new book read project and get back into their groove after another bumpy Fall semester! We begin our discussion of the CAPE scale, a multidimensional model of fan interests. We discuss fandom, what our interests are, and the process of writing the most comprehensive things we have ever covered outside of our dissertations.
