>>109566191Post some screenshots of it
>effects on vtubersI already know the sample size will be too small to draw any conclusions whatsoever, so I will not read it
>>109566191>a few anecdotes tainted by biasworse than even regular psychology studies, which already suffer from a replication crisis
>>109566191>effects of parasocial relationships on vtubersThey get lots of money?
>>109566354Uni papers are nothing but opinion pieces nowadays
As a trans woman of color how does this affect me?
Trusting the social sciences in 2026 lmao xd
>>109566513Everything affects your mental disorder. Don't ask stupid questions.
>>109566191gee humans need actual connections who would have thought before making this whole vtubing psyop
>the western phenomenon of intellectualizing everything and telling everyone else how they are allowed to enjoy iti'm over it. just like things
>>109566191I do not car.
>>109566191Okay I read it. Waste of time.Nothing in this is new or groundbreaking.I also suspect this was written by AI because the number of participants supposed to be 4, but you have shit like>All three participants >Both participants 1,2 and 4>The three that had...both

>>109566191I don't care. You're a monkey that I pay to entertain me and pretend to be my gf. So dance.The effects of my job are shit on me too but I just accept that few people get paid to do something they enjoy. Either choose a different career or court a different audience. You don't actually have to play into the parasocial angle, but they all know it pays the most money. Sorry, can't have it both ways.
>>109566191>Similarly, Participant four, when asked how parasocial relationships made them feel, stated it made them feel “Weird and a little used. It's really irritating to not be presented with clarity in a lot of situations, or genuineness. it didn't hit until someone else had pointed it out.and said, oh, on top of that, they're trying to use you for numbers.”This is something that always bugs me a lot, Vtubers love calling any behavior they dont like parasocial. Someone trying to leech isnt being parasocial
>>109566191grok
>>109566191isn't this like the third time someone does this? get a new paper.
>>109566191I did a paper on a video game when I was like 9 years old and I still cringe thinking of it, how do people not get embarrassed doing this shit in uni?
>>109566191Nah I'm good I don't need to read some garbage opinion essay to be told what to think.
>>109566191>i did a study>look inside>n = 5>ccv = 10-15WHO CARES
>>1095661910% chance this is able to be replicated. Just some opinions.
>>109566191parasocialism isn't measurable so this will be based on questionnaires (sample bias because they're a retarded tourist) or assumptions (more likely than you think). bound to be trash
>>109566191>written by a female vtubernot interested. there's no way this could be objective.
>>109566191not reading this, parasocialism will always be one sided in favor of the vtuber no matter what angle you take. someone is always objectively winning in a trade and most vtubers are scam artists. the only vtuber viewers (no future but slavery/suicide) that are impervious to psychological manipulation are either sleeping or lobotomized.

>>109566749Yeah but women are exceedingly good at lying so it's not like they're being negatively affected by this, if anything the one people should have sympathy for is the viewer side of parasocial relationships, not the streamer or artist.
>>109566191>pandering to schizos and losers can negatively effect youpeople pay tuition for this garbage? this is like colins bear animation
All those words, and not a single paragraph or reply even touched upon the influence of anime on vtubing.Western vtubers were a disgusting mistake.
>>109578870bold to assume any woman watches anime enough to comment on it
>>109566191The effect is lods of emone.
I bother to read that dream. Get this, they asked a whole four people just, like, their opinions man. And their most ambitious goal was a whole six people but that was too much work for a college student.Utter garbage.
>>109567327>>109570539>>n = 5Jesus it would take a female or Indian to actually publish this as if it was anything. Even jocks would be embarrassed >>109566417>>109567731You didn't try and get people to read your video essay or even worse treat as actual academic research
