In September, 2018, I began a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology at Adler University in Vancouver. Roughly two-and-a-half years later, I presented the results of my thesis study at the 2021 Heroism Science Conference. The study, "I can be a hero: What is the influence of fictional hero stories on the personality development of adolescent males?", is an expression of my lifelong interest in heroes, fantasy, and imagination. The full thesis is Open Access and downloadable from my ResearchGate profile. There are no paywalls, it's open for anyone to view, but it is still copyrighted material. So, if you wish to use it for any purpose, please contact me first. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/349061338_I_can_be_a_hero_What_is_the_influence_of_fictional_hero_stories_on_the_personality_development_of_adolescent_males ----- This video is a nonprofit educational presentation of research and scholarship; therefore, it is under Fair Use: Section 107 of the U.S. Copyright Act states: "the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright." https://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#107 This presentation contains images and clips that are the rightful property of their authorized owners.
