Qualitative study examining how TTRPG play develops literacy skills and reading interests in teenagers. Finds that non-traditional texts used in TRPGs (magazines, graphic novels, rule books) engage students who otherwise may not engage with traditional pieces. Key citations: Glazer 2015, Hergenrader 2011, Zalka 2012. Free PDF.
