Gamer Motivation Profile Findings -

Gamers are not a monolithic group; gaming preferences and motivations vary among gamers in important ways. Using survey data from over 140,000 gamers worldwide, we used factor analysis to develop an empirical framework of gaming motivations and a validated tool to measure those motivations. We’ll present the gaming motivations we identified, how they are related to each other and group together in 3 high-level clusters, how they vary by gender and age, and how they correlate with personality traits. This is a data-driven talk where we focus on the surprising findings that emerged from the large data set. Speaker: Nick Yee Nick Yee is the co-founder and analytics lead of Quantic Foundry.
