Freedom to think aloud
J. P. Leighton
Collecting think-aloud data on critical thinking about controversial, real-world topics can be undermined when students fear speaking freely. This paper argues that such internal distractions threaten the truthfulness of verbal reports and the validity of inferences—and calls for empirical attention to a 'freedom to think aloud.' Research was conducted by Jacqueline P. Leighton.
