A person stands at a podium giving a conference presentation in a hotel meeting room. A projection screen next to them displays a colorful slide titled โSpirituality at Scale: A Large-Sample Study of Tarot Readings,โ co-authored by an associate professor and a PhD candidate in sociology at UMass Boston. The presenter faces the audience while the slide includes bright geometric shapes in blue, orange, pink, and yellow tones.
๐ Exciting news!
PhD candidate Cam Marsinelli (@cmarsinelli.bsky.social) presented research at the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion in Minneapolis.
With Dr. Evan Stewart (@evanstewart.bsky.social), they used AI to analyze YouTube tarot readings + engagement. Congrats! ๐ #UMB #Sociology

Screenshot of a slide titled "The Case: Tarot & Spiritual Practice Online, at Scale." We show that self-reports of practicing tarot in the last 12 months are up among 18-29 year olds in the National Religion and Spirituality Survey, and the Pew Research Center reports 30% of Americans consult astrology, tarot cards, or fortune tellers.
Tomorrow #ASA2025 / ASR2025: Let's talk tarot. Come out to see @cmarsinelli.bsky.social & me with new findings on what practitioners say & what audiences reward with attention when we study spiritual practice online, at scale. Session 50668 - Religion & the Therapeutic at Noon!

Weโve been cooking thanks to @cmarsinelli.bsky.socialโs stellar work. Excited to tease something new for religion/spirituality/culture researchers at #ESS2025, especially with new Pew reports on widespread spirituality in the US.
