• Effects of "literariness" on emotions and on empathy and reflection after reading (2016, result): “Confirming results of previous studies (e.g., Igartua, 2010; Koopman et al., 2012), reflection seemed to be aided by affective responses, with personal reflection being associated with identification, and general reflection with empathic understanding.”
• Changing Real‐World Beliefs With Controversial Movies: Processes and Mechanisms of Narrative Persuasion (2012, methodology): “The independent variable was related to the moment at which the beliefs or opinions about Opus Dei and religion were measured: before (control group) or after (treatment group) seeing the film Camino (a similar design was used by Butler et al., 1995; Koopman et al., 2006; Igartua, 2010, Study 3).”
• Story Perspective and Character Similarity as Drivers of Identification and Narrative Persuasion (2016, unknown): “Several studies have shown that identification plays an important role in audio-visual narratives as well (e.g., Igartua, 2010; Igartua & Barrios, 2012; Moyer-Gusé & Nabi, 2010).”
