Narrative Identification

Narrative Identification is a psychological construct within narrative health communication that denotes the process whereby a reader cognitively and affectively aligns with a narrative's protagonist or perspective, thereby experiencing the story world as if it were their own, distinguished from related concepts such as empathy or persuasion by its focus on the merging of self and character through textual engagement.
