Experimental Manipulation of Psychological Involvement with Media (2014, methodology): “This can be done, for example, by identifying manipulations of conditions and message characteristics that alter one involvement type but not the other (Tal Or & Cohen, 2010).”
The role of dimensions of narrative engagement in narrative persuasion (2009, background): “Even though Slater and Rouner (2002, p. 179) equate their concept of absorption with transportation, several researchers argue that it is not necessary to take the place of a character in a narrative world to be transported (e. g. Cohen and Tal-Or, 2008; Green, Brock and Kaufman, 2004, p. 318).”
Does Character Similarity Increase Identification and Persuasion? (2018, background): “One important principle that has been established is that identification is stronger with virtuous characters than with evil characters (Cohen, Tal-Or & Mazor- Tregerman, 2015; Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
10 The Effects of Engagement with Entertainment (2013, background): “Although transportation and empathy are related experiences, it has been argued that they can occur independently (Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
Story Perspective and Character Similarity as Drivers of Identification and Narrative Persuasion (2016, background): “In several studies, the manipulation of a character’s likeability has succeeded in influencing the level of identification with that character (e.g., Hoeken & Sinkeldam, 2014; Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
The Role of a Narrative's Emotional Flow in Promoting Persuasive Outcomes (2015, neutral): “Indeed, transportation and identification can be empirically separated (Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
Fostering Parasocial Relationships with Celebrities on Social Media: Implications for Celebrity Endorsement (2017, methodology): “A number of studies have been conducted to identify the dimensionality of parasocial relationships (Auter & Palmgreen, 2000; Cohen, 2001; Perse, 1990; Rubin & Perse, 1987; Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
Effects of "literariness" on emotions and on empathy and reflection after reading (2016, background): “Feelings towards events/scenes were measured with the construct absorption (also known as “transportation”): feeling drawn into the narrative world, experiencing it as vivid (cf. Green & Brock, 2000; Tal-Or & Cohen, 2010).”
