Close to individual reading strategies and reception of an exhibition If you want to know how the museum visitor experiences the exhibition there is a long tradition of using registration of the visitors' moves in the exhibition to find out where the hot-spots are; or using questionnaires to collect information. That can easily be quantified; or using qualitative interviews of the visitor after the museum experience.The problem with these methods is that the visitor needs to formulate a meaning for his or her experience and in this reconstruction of the visit often adds elements that were not present in the experience itself.
