Researchers at the Oxford Internet Institute approached the developers of seven popular video games with results in a large-scale experiment among gamers. They wanted a study to double-check theirs from 2020, which found that most gamers found themselves happier when they started playing games. However, this study was largely based on subjective assessment and had a low representativeness.
The new experience involved 39,000 gamers who played Eve Online, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Forza Horizon 4, Apex Legends, Gran Turismo Sport, Outriders and The Crew 2. These games belong to different genres, they have completely different the personality of the gameplay and the particular impact on the emotions of the players. Geyerov suggested that by inserting scores on the parameters “autonomy”, “competence” and “external subject”.
After analyzing the prices, the scientists gave input, what is the world process? Neither the time of the game, nor the gameplay, nor the ability to play in a team or not particularly peculiar to the mind of a gamer in such a way that this is carried out to changes in his behavior. Alas, the pleasure of the game is also not delivered, satisfaction with life does not depend on them. It’s a fast process and it takes a lot of time, no problem go.
