An experimental framework for assessing process formalisms from project members' points of view is proposed. This framework is based on the goal/question/metric paradigm and uses role definitions to state the assessment goals. The assessment goals are then used to identify the information that must be supplied by a formalism to support a project role. The feasibility of this framework is demonstrated using the ISPW-6 software process example. A number of example roles are identified, and example hypotheses are derived for some of the formalisms used
