Dubourg and Baumard's paper takes a different, and fruitful, approach to the study of imaginary worlds than what is usually found in Media Studies, but omits certain circumstances and influences that shaped their history; this article argues that psychological or behavioral factors are not enough to explain the growth of imaginary worlds, even as they may be important influences.
迪布尔格和鲍马尔的论文采用了一种与媒体研究中常见方法不同且富有成效的方式来研究虚构世界,但遗漏了某些塑造其历史的情况和影响因素;本文认为,即使心理或行为因素可能是重要影响因素,但仅靠它们不足以解释虚构世界的发展。
