Contrasting MFT and MAC in TV Series

In Progress
📅 Aug 1, 2025
Moral content is believed to be a defining factor in media engagement. In this project, we investigate whether moral content and moral conflict in TV series predict audience scores. Furthermore, we will make this evaluation with both the Moral Foundations Theory and Morality-as-Cooperation Theory to probe which theory, if any, makes better score predictions.
