A former Professor of mine published a paper on a very related topic. He interviewed 54 software developer at the International Conference on Software Engineering. I found it a very nice read.

Indeed, a fascinating study, thank you for the link. Breaking down the summary:

Conclusion: More software engineering research should concern itself with:

- emergence phenomena

- how engineering trade offs are made

- the assumptions underlying research works

- creating certain taxonomies.

Such work would also allow software engineering to become more evidence-based.
