Objective
The project studies individuals and apos; interaction with media (and literature) and investigates its psychological functions. How do young adult and apos;s from various strata of society and ethnic backgrounds mentally and narratively interact with and about media products? How do the psycho-affective processes interrelate with the individual and apos;s life history? How and when do these narrative processes of media interaction have (counter-) therapeutic effects on individuals in the sense that they advance or hinder the mitigation of psycho-traumatic experience and/ or the resolution of personal issues of conflict-? More specifically: How can (traditional and electronic) media be used/taught in such a way that they support the psycho-biographical and socio-cultural working-through of traumatic experiences (inherent to 20th century European history)? How can we develop sustainable forms of narrative/ interactional and emotional intelligence? A multidisciplinary approach to qualitative media-interaction research drawing from social studies, therapy- and psycho-trauma studies, narratology and cultural studies will be applied. The methods employed include narration analysis, narrative biographical interviewing, group interviewing on media experiences and narratological text/film analysis. The overriding aim is to find out more about how media interaction can best prepare tomorrow and apos;s multi-cultural knowledge societies for the challenges of contemporary Europe. How can narrative media literacy be advanced in order to secure the build-up of psychological and social soft skills which are crucial for entrepreneurship and societal well-being. How can the European scientific community be prompted to focus attention and resources on qualitative/ narratological media studies?
