Analysing Verbal Protocols
Gabriele Kasper · TESOL Quarterly · 1998
A single verbal protocol is not an island to itself, but a link in a whole chain of evidence, stretching far into the past and the future, that gradually develops, molds, and modifies our scientific theories. It needs to be processed with full attention to these linkages. (Ericsson & Simon, 1993, p. 280)
