Sara Grady
Sara Grady is a media psychologist and her research explores narrative experience on psychological and biological levels. What makes movies feel real? Why do we care about fictional characters and events enough to revisit them time and again, or talk about them with friends? In other words, what motivates narrative entertainment processing, how is it so intrinsically rewarding, and how does a story experience unfold over time?She uses a variety of quantitative approaches to assess the emotional and cognitive processes underlying entertainment’s functional value for users, especially as a coping mechanism when we’re under stress.
