Project Description: 

This project aimed  to prepare a submission for an SNF Weave Project in collaboration with the UZH/ZHdK (Hiloko Kato), the ZHAW (Elena Gavagnin), and the TU München/TU Graz (Johanna Pirker). The project, titled “Multimodal and Multifactoral Analysis of Game Dynamics,” addresses critical issues related to the decline of player experience in online multiplayer games due to deviant and toxic behaviour. It focuses on fundamental research through qualitative and quantitative analysis of gameplay dynamics, incorporating contextual information.

This project is one of the direct results of Johanna Pirker’s fellowship with our community. The ZHAW already got substantial funding via ZHAW Digital and our social media post already generated a lot of interest: https://www.zhaw.ch/en/research/project/77650
