<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello to everyone. I'm a PhD student in Mass
Communication at the University of Georgia and have just subscribed to this
list. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am in the preliminary stages (read: literature
collection) of research project regarding the psychology of, and construction
of community in, MMORPGs (Massively Muliplayer Online Role Playing Games). I
was wondering if anyone knew of any academic studies of online gaming (in any
context, not limited to the ones I described). I've only managed to find the
works of Nicholas Yee regarding MMORPGs and Ever Quest in particular (but none
of those have have been published anywhere despite being rather
extensive).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any help/advice is much appreciated.</FONT></DIV>
