How Stories Change Us : A Developmental Science of Stories from Fiction and Real Life / by Reese, Elaine, author 655966

“…Likewise, imagined stories and imagined friendships can promote learning, creativity, and well-being, but at the extremes, imaginative processes can be linked to psychopathology. The gender differences observed in women's and men's fiction reading may be due in part to individual differences in mental imagery from practices dating back to early childhood. …”
