“…Thinking aloud as a scientific method has been used in many other disciplines, showing the relevance and applicability of this method. Not only researchers studying cognition (e.g., Fleck and Weisberg, 2004 ; Hölscher et al, 2006 ; Malek et al, 2017 ), but also researchers studying education (e.g., Cummings et al, 1989 ; van den Bergh and Rijlaarsdam, 2001 ; Bannert, 2003 ; Kesler et al, 2016 ), text comprehension using computer based tools ( Muñoz et al, 2006 ; Van Hooijdonk et al, 2006 ; Wang, 2016 ), discourse processing ( Long and Bourg, 1996 ), software engineering ( Hughes and Parkes, 2003 ), psychology and law ( Santtila et al, 2004 ), sport psychology (e.g., Samson et al, 2017 ), and business management ( Isenberg, 1986 ; Premkumar, 1989 ; Hoc, 1991 ) have applied the thinking-aloud method. In a similar form, thinking aloud has also influenced the fields of counseling and clinical psychology, for example, in the assessment of automatic thoughts as part of cognitive therapy in depression (e.g., Meichenbaum, 1980 ; DeRubeis et al, 1990 ).…”
