Studying thoughts: stimulated recall as a game research method

When choosing an appropriate method for a study, the researcher is faced with two simple questions: What is the study trying to find out? How does the study have the best chances of finding it out? When play experience, decision-making, play culture or interactions are the focus of the study, or if one is interested the thoughts of players during certain events, stimulated recall provides a very practical tool.
