Episode 145: CAPE Book Club 8: Seeking Social Balance

  • Summary

  • Episode 145 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 discuss how belonging and engaging with others serves as a core motivator for engaging in fandom. Specifically we discuss the dual social processes of self-determination and optimal distinctiveness (belonging, but also maintaining uniqueness).
