Tools used to measure behavior change/self-reflection in video games

[Isidor Cardenas]

Greetings!

I am thinking of doing a qualitative study in the context of health and lifestyle habits - how a video game can be used to promote healthy behavior change in real life or allow the player to reflect on his/her health choices through playing the game.

I am looking for existing research that uses tools/methodology to measure behavior change of the player before and after playing a video game.

Thanks and more power to the community!

Just heard this over the weekend - not a long interview, but there might be some helpful resources.
