ABSTRACT

This paper proposes that challenge, an orthogonal game attribute, can be used to improve game effectiveness. The results of our study suggest that attitude toward challenge should be considered when we tune challenge in the serious game for better learning results. A significant moderating role of attitude toward challenge is found in the relationship between challenge and self-efficacy. Investigating from the perspective of game attributes together with players’ attitude toward the attributes is a good approach to improving game design. Our approach of game improvement is a clear, explicit and one-to-one approach to relate game attributes and attitudes toward them.

摘要

本文提出挑战，一种正交游戏属性，可用于提高游戏有效性。我们的研究结果表明，当我们在严肃游戏中调整挑战以获得更好的学习效果时，应该考虑对挑战的态度。在挑战和自我效能感之间的关系中发现了对挑战的态度的显着调节作用。从游戏属性的角度进行调查，结合玩家对属性的态度，是改进游戏设计的好方法。我们的游戏改进方法是一种清晰、明确和一对一的方法，用于关联游戏属性和对它们的态度。
