Original Research

We know that people learn better from stories than stats, and stories are more effective at driving behavior than lectures. And while not everyone will regularly visit a doctor or therapist, everyone will engage with media and entertainment — whether that be through scrolling social media, watching TV, playing video games, or going to the movies. That means: the opportunity for positive impact is MASSIVE.

Here at the Center for Scholars & Storytellers, we combine our unique expertise in both research and the entertainment industry to give storytellers the evidence-based tools to maximize positive social impact and improve the bottom line. We develop easy-to-read, well-designed reports and content development tools with research insights targeted to content creators. We conduct original research and literature reviews on topics that are of interest to storytellers. We also perform commissioned research, translate research to articles, and provide other supporting materials to fit your needs.

Data can help.

Stories have power.
