Bleed: The Spillover Between Player and Character: by Hawke Robinson — published Jun 21, 2017 — last modified Aug 09, 2020 02:40 PM — filed under: LARP
Participants often engage in role-playing in order to step inside the shoes of another person in a fictional reality that they consider “consequence-free.” However, role-players sometimes experience moments where their real life feelings, thoughts, relationships, and physical states spill over into their characters’ and vice versa. In role-playing studies, we call this phenomenon bleed.[1]

LARP and Debriefing: by Hawke Robinson — published Jun 21, 2017 — last modified Jun 21, 2020 08:26 AM — filed under: Diagnosis: Depression, LARP
Debriefing is a somewhat controversial topic in role-playing communities today. While some individuals feel that games should remain distinct from the mundane world and debriefing is an unnecessary complication, many role-players have grown concerned about difficulties in the process of transitioning between intense game experiences back to mundane life.[1]

Old Research Repository: by Hawke Robinson — published Aug 16, 2017 — last modified Mar 21, 2019 02:48 PM
This is RPG Research's older research repository. We are currently moving more than 3,000 content items (1 multi-page essay equals 1 content item) from this old site to our new repository at www.rpgresearch.com/research . The new repository is better organized and formatted, but it takes months for our volunteers to move all this content from the old site to the new site, so we are keeping the old repository available until the move is complete. All new research is being added to the new repository, no new research is being added to this old repository as of 2018.

Using RPGs to correct misbehaviour: by Shaun Low — published Mar 28, 2018 — last modified Jul 24, 2020 05:37 PM — filed under: Adolescent, Potential RPG Research Question, Effects of RPG, Function: Cognition, Aspect: Anger / Anger Management
I've had a lot of students over the years, many of whom would display acts of misbehaviour in and outside of class. Today, I would like to discuss my experiences with using RPGs to correct such traits. I also have a short anecdote that would hopefully inspire parents and educators out there.
