Consistent with historical trends related to culturally based constructs, the latter component has garnered the least a…

The mental health frames we …

Because a transmedia approach to storytelling is a natural, albeit an understudied extension of the EE strategy, the researchers investigate how involvement with one interactive storytelling format, flash games, influences audience involvemen…
