The Imaginative Engagement Scale
Prior research has focused on individual differences in how readers engage with narratives; however, much of this work has focused a tendency to become immersed or swept up in narratives. The purpose of the four studies reported here was to develop and validate a self-report measure tapping individual differences in a tendency to step back to think or imagine while engaging with narratives. The resulting trait Imaginative Engagement Scale (IES) c…
Fiction and morality
Pushing the boundaries of reality
Recognition as a measure of television exposure
Tell Me a Story
Sacred stories and religious texts play a central role in religion, yetthere is a paucity of research investigating the relationship betweenreligiosity and individual differences in how people engage with stories.Here, we examine the relationship between religiosity, as well asa belief in God, and three variables related to how individuals interactwith narratives: a tendency to become absorbed in stories (transportability),a tendency to form rela…
Morality and the imagination
The purpose of this paper was to test whether imaginative resistance – a term used in the philosophical literature to describe the reluctance to imagine counter-moral worlds – is experienced by people when they are asked to do something rather than just imagine it. Prior research suggests that people find it more difficult to imagine morally deviant worlds. Here, in a within-subjects design, we asked participants to describe in writing morally de…
Highlighting Healthy Options in a Food Pantry Setting
Food pantries are an important resource for the food insecure. The purpose of this study was to generate pilot data on effects of rearranging a food pantry on consumer food choices. Two pantries in Illinois participated in the study: a control pantry and the other pantry rearranged to highlight healthier foods. Consumer selections were compared. Patrons at the intervention pantry chose more fresh fruits and vegetables, canned vegetables, nuts, an…
Who can resist a villain? Morality, Machiavellianism, imaginative resistance and liking for dark fictional characters
A Qualitative Exploration of Weight Bias and Quality of Health Care Among Health Care Professionals Using Hypothetical Patient Scenarios
The purpose of this study was to determine whether weight bias exhibited by health care professionals (HCPs) impacts quality of health care provided to individuals with obesity. HCPs (n = 220; 88% female, 87% nurses) in the Midwest region of the United States were recruited to complete an online survey. In this within-subjects study design, participants completed the Attitudes Towards Obese Persons (ATOP) scale to assess weight bias and responded…
Co-occurring Risk Factors in Multiple Sclerosis
These results suggest that: (1) the cluster of co-occurring poor diet and insufficient physical activity is associated with comorbidities and neuroperformance markers; and (2) that cluster is further synergistically associated with comorbidities and neuroperformance markers
Does reading a single passage of literary fiction really improve theory of mind? An attempt at replication
< .001, d = 0.21. All versions of this article have been corrected.] Fiction simulates the social world and invites us into the minds of characters. This has led various researchers to suggest that reading fiction improves our understanding of others' cognitive and emotional states. Kidd and Castano (2013) received a great deal of attention by providing support for this claim. Their article reported that reading segments of literary fiction (but …
The effects of reading material on social and non-social cognition
Fanfiction as imaginary play
Children’s preference for social stories
Many scholars have proposed theories to explain the appeal of fictional stories, but relatively little research has examined this issue from a developmental perspective. Here, we investigate the role that social and mental content play in attracting children to stories. In Experiment 1, 4- to 8-year-old children preferred stories that contained people over those that focused on objects. In Experiment 2, children preferred stories with mental cont…
