conference contribution
posted on 2023-05-23, 07:49 authored by Zulkifly, A, Ian LewisIan Lewis, Kristy de SalasKristy de SalasAchievement Systems are inextricably tied to the largest gaming service platforms in the world currently.

However, prevalent models of motivation report that extrinsic motivation undermines intrinsic interest in a task. This paper seeks to explore this problem space and offers a proposed method of measuring this phenomenon.
