Participant Demographics
Jul. 10th, 2015 12:56 pmThe next area of the project I’d like to talk about are the participant demographics. This section of the project can be found here: The Participants.
To be honest, I’m ambivalent about the use of participant demographics in fan research. I’m not sure how helpful they are. What do you think? Do you think demographics are useful? What do you want people to think about when they’re looking at demographic data on fans? What advice would you give them? Comment at Fandom Then/Now or respond in the comments section below.
