Frank Hakemulder

درباره نویسنده

Frank Hakemulder is a notable figure in the field of narrative research and empirical methods for the humanities. His work primarily focuses on how narratives interact with human cognition and emotion, exploring the concept of narrative absorption. This area of study looks at how individuals engage with stories and the psychological processes that underpin their experiences with narrative forms, such as literature and film.

In addition to his research on narrative absorption, Hakemulder has contributed significantly to the development and application of scientific methods within the humanities. His publications, including 'Muses and Measures: Empirical Research Methods for the Humanities' and 'Scientific Methods for the Humanities', emphasize the importance of rigorous empirical methods in humanities research. By advocating for a more scientific approach, he seeks to bridge the gap between qualitative analysis and quantitative research, providing a comprehensive understanding of narrative phenomena.
