Gaming and Personality: An Academic Study (mod approved)

Hi all. My name is Joshua Quinlan and I’m a PhD candidate in social psychology at York University studying videogames. As part of my studies, I’m currently running a study on gaming interest and personality and I’m curious as to what people think the link is between personality and interest in different types of games. Does personality partially dictate our interest in games? Or does personality just determine how we engage with games and not which games we play?

I’m running a study on this topic currently and am recruiting participants. The study takes less than 15 minutes and participants will be entered in a raffle for a $50 USD gift card (odds are 1 in 100 or better). Anyone who plays at least 5 hours of games per week (on average) and is 16 years or older is eligible to participate.  

The Moderators have approved this survey post.

Thank you!
