A short 14 minute summary, created for the Texas State University (TSU) / Living Games 2016 Conference/Pre-conference. While the essay paper for this event was submitted for peer review and rejected as the draft was, and I didn't have time at the time to make the needed changes to the paper. The non-academic track (not peer reviewed) related slideshow and recorded audio/video were accepted for presentation at the event (albeit a poorly done video that was painfully accelerated to squeeze into the allotted time).

causal study(ies)
Here is a summary of many observations I have made through various experiments in trying to optimize the RPG experience. These are based both on observations (most of which include thousands of hours of recorded RPG sessions), verbal feedback, and formal assessment forms from participants. Scores of variables were taken into consideration and repeatedly tweaked to try to find some level of causal changes, but at this stage are probably only at best correlative, in the enjoyment levels of participants. There are plenty of potential confounds here, and so every statement should have that taken into consideration that these should be further researched with more rigorous techniques. However, implementation of these observations does seem to have lead to consistently higher assessment & observation scores. I hope others find this useful for trying to optimize your own RPG setting. This was a non-therapeutic and non-educational setting, it was only for standard leisure activity of tabletop role-playing games.
