"Trust the Process'': An Exploratory Study of Process Visualizations for Self-Reflection in Leagu...
summary
A controlled study with 28 intermediate players uses a recorded gold collection 1v1 against a bot and compares a purpose-built process visualization vs aggregate visualization. Players view either a sequence-based process view or an action-count aggregate, reflect with structured prompts, then replay. Both groups improve but only the process group shows statistically significant score gains and a significant drop in deaths, and process viewers more often make process-oriented attributions rather than mistaken causal conclusions.
