Welcome!
Thank you for your interest in participating in our research study. This study is being conducted by undergraduate students as part of a Human-Computer Interaction course project.

We are exploring how parasocial relationships — one-sided emotional connections with public figures, influencers, or celebrities — may relate to emotional well-being, particularly among people who participate in online fandom communities.
