The Impact of Personality and Motivation on Immersion in Simulation Games
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Preuß, Anna Katharina – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2020
The cognitive-motivational process model of learning describes how personality traits in a specific situation influence current learner motivation and through certain mediators, the learning outcome. This study investigates the influence of personality traits and current motivation on these mediators. For 86 high school students playing a…

The Role of Awareness for Complex Planning Task Performance: A Microgaming Study
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lukosch, Heide; Groen, Daan; Kurapati, Shalini; Klemke, Roland; Verbraeck, Alexander – International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 2016
This study introduces the concept of microgames to support situated learning in order to foster situational awareness (SA) of planners in seaport container terminals. In today's complex working environments, it is often difficult to develop the required level of understanding of a given situation, described as situational awareness. A container…

Guided Discovery Learning with Computer-Based Simulation Games: Effects of Adaptive and Non-Adaptive Instructional Support.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Leutner, Detlev – Learning and Instruction, 1993
System-initiated adaptive advice and learner-requested nonadaptive background information were investigated in computer simulation game experiments with 64 seventh graders, 38 college students, and 80 seventh and eighth graders in Germany. Results are discussed in terms of theories of problem solving, intelligence, memory, and information…
