“…UX dimensions were interpreted based on how UX was structured or evaluated in each paper. This was sometimes explicit, for example [43], but sometimes it had to be interpreted from how the authors discussed UX, such as [1] where they evaluate UX in terms of felt and actual understanding, perceived interactivity, narrativity and dissonance. 2.…”

Providing intelligent feedback to aid authoring has been proposed as a way to speed up authoring, give the author more control, and to enable the authoring of more complex interactive narratives. However, there is little research investigating what concrete feedback items would be useful for interactive digital narrative (IDN) creators. In this paper, we discuss potentially useful feedback items in relation to authoring goals and concerns. We perform a systematic literature review to make a list of concrete feedback items of interest related to the most emphasised concern of authoring -the effect of the interactive narrative on the user. We identify 47 User Experience (UX) dimensions in the IDN literature that could serve as useful feedback items, covering 8 categories -Agency, Cognition, Immersion, Affect, Drama, Rewards, Motivation and Dissonance. This list combines and untangles how different IDN researchers have interpreted and expressed interest in the complex idea of UX in the past decade and gives us insight into what concrete aspects of UX might be useful to estimate via automated feedback.

“…As Jenkins (2004) argues, for all games, space plays a major role and therefore it is important that the effect the PCG has on the space part of the narrative is known. By only using embedded elements in the narrative space we will create a more extreme version of an embedded narrative without additional methods of conveying the narrative (similar to Bevensee et al (2012b)). This enables us to measure what effect changing the space by PCG has on the narrative understanding for the players.…”

“…The retelling is a new narrative that is created from the afterstory when the receiver retells the narrative they experienced, their afterstory. Bevensee et al (2012b) used a similar retelling method to explore the participant's afterstory which was then coded using grounded theory to compare to other participants. We however propose a slightly different approach.…”

“…In addition, the aim of this thesis was to create a simple narrative and even though deeper layers exist, we only wanted the players to get the referential meaning of the narrative (Bordwell et al, 2008). It would therefore be interesting to repeat the evaluation but design a different narrative and aim to embed also the deeper, explicit or implicit, meaning in the space similar to Bevensee et al (2012b) to see if a similar non-significant result would show.…”
