An Examination and Extension of the Theory of Gamified Learning: The Moderating Role of Goal Orientation

Caribay Garcia- Marquez, Kristina N. Bauer

Results

“There was little support for the hypothesized moderated mediation model. However, an interesting outcome of this study was the significant conditional indirect effect of the badge condition for average learning and high avoid performance goal orientations, suggesting badges can improve self-efficacy in gamified learning.”
