verbal report methods

Verbal report methods involve participants or researchers sharing information aloud, usually to record observations, tasks, or responses. These methods can include interviews, verbal think-aloud protocols, or discussions, allowing insight into thought processes, decision-making, or experiences. The key advantage is capturing detailed, real-time information that might be overlooked in written reports. They are commonly used in research, user experience testing, or training evaluations to obtain rich, immediate feedback. This approach helps understand how people think and act in specific situations, providing valuable qualitative data for analysis.
