Mediapsychologie.nl
As a media psychologist and self-named "New Media Explorer" I observe, analyse and interpret media developments and events and the effect these have on humans.
Media psychology aims at understanding how people understand, use and respond to media in this media-rich world. I try to determine where and how people benefit or might be harmed by media influence.
In short: "What is happening to our media? What is happening to us? "
Who am I? Graduated in media psychology, I earn a living mainly with advice around IT and new media. Especially with media companies, but what modern business isn't nowadays?
One of my ideals is to contribute to helping people become better adept to new uses of media and using new media in safe and smart ways - to become more media literate.
