Abstract

We examine the impact that gaming on a social tournament platform while playing multiplayer games has on the mental well-being of college students. In this early-stage study, we used the Scale of Positive and Negative Experiences and the Player Experience and Need Satisfaction Scale to measure well-being, gaming motivation, and enjoyment. We complement these survey tools with facial expression analysis of students during gameplay for a more holistic understanding of their emotional states and the impact of social gaming.
