Resource summary

Cyber stalking
Finn
Allows anonymity & behaviour that the stalker may not be brace enough to do face-to-face
General evaluation
Practical application if we can develop suitable therapy (e.g. drugs, psychotherapy)
Psychopathic celeb stalkers are resistant to treatment. Stalking = complex/not unitary
Celebrity worship
Malty's Celebrity Attitude Scale (Likert)
Entertainment-social factor (fan club), intense-personal factor (shrine), borderline-psychological (fantasies)
McCutcheon
Findings suggest that CW is on a sliding scale rather than distinct catagories
Negative correlation between education & worship - more intelligent people see through the celebrity cult BUT correlation?
The difference is that the first two are passive. Only <1% = psychological
Gabriel
Students completed question on self-esteem then wrote essay about celebrity. Those with low self-esteem had higher score
General evaluation
Giles & Maltby
Is it the celebrity themselves or the status of the celeb that is worshipped?
West & Sweeting
Practical application: CW teaching in schools
Kennedy
Suggests genetic link - but nature or nurture?
