During spring break, I took time to rethink my approach to my final product. Looking at all the research I have done so far, I realized that there is a lot of research regarding this topic. I would need to either narrow down the scope of my research to one specific aspect that leads to people being invested in fictional characters or not go in depth with each of the aspects I plan to explain. Either way, my final product will have more focus on the literature review aspect than the case study part.
I also spent time looking for more professionals to contact and schedule interviews with. I was previously looking for people with experience in research psychology or are experienced with writing psychology papers, however this has not resulted in much luck in terms of getting in contact with these professionals. I have been encouraged to try and contact practicing psychologists and other licensed professionals through the APA. I started exploring these new options and I will begin contacting more people this following week.
The deadline for the Final Product, among many other things, is steadily approaching, so I will need to be prepared for the work that is about to come in the following few weeks. By taking this time to organize and prepare for all my upcoming activities, I hope to make the process less stressful so I can enjoy the results of my work and grow as a result.
