“…Achieving high levels of presence in VEs is important because it is believed to lead individuals behaving in a manner more consistent with their real-life behavior, thereby increasing the utility of applications utilizing VEs (Slater et al, 1996). While the use of VR headsets has been shown to have a significant impact on immersion and sense of presence (Caroux, 2023), we made a deliberate choice not to utilize these devices in vBATon to prioritize ease of use and accessibility. Nevertheless, we believe that vBATon still manages to be immersive and instill a sense of presence due to other design factors like first-person perspective and familiar control schemes resembling popular video games.…”

“…Finally, presence can be understood as a sense of presence or participation (Caroux, 2022;Marto & Gonc xalves, 2022;Ryan et al, 2006), which makes people willing to put themselves into the designed rules of the game to complete their corresponding tasks. Joo et al's (2013) research on e-learning also confirms that flow has a significant effect as an intermediate measure between instructional presence, cognitive presence, and satisfaction.…”

Since the Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses have been applied to college students’ entrepreneurship courses, it has provided interactive and immersive course experiences to help improve the effect of course teaching. From the perspective of college students, Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses are a novel teaching method, and the satisfaction of college students with Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses will determine the future development of this course model. However, current research shows that college students’ satisfaction with Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses has not yet reached the desired level. Therefore, this study aims to study the factors and mechanisms that affect college students’ satisfaction with gamification entrepreneurship courses by constructing an integrated flow framework. A total of 205 college students who participated in the Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses were obtained, and the study used partial least squares (PLS) to analyze the measurement and structural models. The results show that the satisfaction of Gamified Entrepreneurship Courses is affected by presence and the competence needs, autonomy needs, and related needs in Self-determination Theory (SDT), and this effect is generated through the mediating variable of flow. Therefore, we verified that competence, autonomy, relatedness, and presence are key determinants in helping college students enter a state of flow, flow, in turn, reflects the level of satisfaction with the course. Our research provides empirical evidence for entrepreneurship curriculum teachers to improve college students’ satisfaction with the curriculum and continuous learning.

“…In the era of experience economy (Pine & Gilmore, 2013), brilliant game experience has become an important symbol of comparative advantage and one of the core factors to measure the success of a game (Budi et al, 2021; Molinillo et al, 2020). Gamer experience includes enjoyment-related dimensions, such as enjoyment, flow, emotion, participation, immersion, and presence (Boyle et al, 2012; Caroux, 2023; De Byl, 2015; Díaz et al, 2022; Khoshnoud et al, 2020). Compared with other forms of games, the advantages of in-vehicle games are mainly reflected in the unique experience brought by the sense of presence and immersion created by the digital cabin, and the play valuing that other traditional game methods cannot achieve.…”

As an emerging game category, in-vehicle games have great development potential, but the factors influencing users’ acceptance and continuance intention of in-car games were still not determined. This study used the three perceived attributes of Diffusion of Innovations Theory, compatibility, complexity, and relative advantage, as basis and introduced perceived habits, fit, interaction quality, experience, play value, and continuous use intention to establish the users’ continuance intention model of in-vehicle games. The results of 305 valid questionnaires indicate that compatibility and play value have significant positive influence on continuance intention, of which fit shows stronger effect; perceived habits have significant influence on fit and interaction quality; both fit and quality have significant influence on experience; experience have significant influence on play value. The results of this study can provide reference for promotion design of in-vehicle games and important guidance for future development for in-vehicle game industry.
