“…One of the core strengths of gamification and motivational design is directing individuals along this process, arguably through the gameful experience [10,21]. Research has investigated commonly employed features of gamification and the extent to which they support goal-setting, for example, leaderboards in learning [29] rewards and outcomes [16,37,39] and largely, which categories of gamification features may be preferred by which individuals depending on their goal-setting tendencies [14]. Theory has hence emerged on the connections between goal-setting and gamification [10].…”

Gamification has become one of the top engagement technology trends of recent times. It refers to designing and transforming systems, services, and activities to afford gameful experiences as good games do, commonly implemented through the utilization of familiar features from games. However, one of the persistent problems in academia and practice has been the lack of understanding of which systems features are more or less prone to facilitate which dimensions of the gameful experience. We investigate the relationships between user interaction with features related to goalsetting, self-tracking as well as prompts, and gameful experiences (accomplishment, challenge, competition, guidance, immersion, playfulness, and sociability) through a survey (N=201) in a gamified exercise service. Goal-setting and prompt features were positively associated with most dimensions of the gameful experience whereas self-tracking features were negatively associated with immersion and sociability while positively associated with feelings of accomplishment.

“…A plausible explanation for the inconsistent effects is that gamified awards can be designed differently. Existing literature has considered several types of gamified award , such as reputation (Chen et al, 2022), points (Goes et al, 2016;Richter et al, 2018), level (Chen et al, 2022;Khansa et al, 2015), peer award (Burtch et al, 2022), and badge (Bhattacharyya et al, 2020;Cavusoglu et al, 2021;Yanovsky et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2020). Jointly, these studies offer two important findings.…”

“…The sustainability of an online Q&A (Question & Answer) community, such as Stack Overflow and Quora, requires proactive, voluntary knowledge sharing by users to help online others. Despite essential sources of motivation for individuals' knowledge sharing behaviors can be attributed to their intrinsic motivation, many Q&A communities seek to elevate such motivation by offering gamified awards that include leaderboard, points, badges (Bornfeld & Rafaeli, 2019;Richter et al, 2018). Among them, badges represent a common form of gamified awards and serve as an intuitive road map to guide users toward obtaining "benefits of providing 'public' goods by recognizing them in front of their peers" (Goes et al, 2016, p. 498).…”

This study investigates the differential effects of badge repeatability and level on users' knowledge sharing behaviors in an online Q&A (Question & Answer) community. Drawing on reinforcement theory and attribution theory of motivation, we conjecture that nonrepeatable badges reinforce individuals' behaviors primarily by promoting internal attributions that strengthen their self-determination motivation, while repeatable badges reinforce people's behaviors mainly via external attributions that undermine their selfdetermination motivation. By using fixed-effects models to analyze a panel data, we observe that nonrepeatable badges can better motivate users to share their knowledge than repeatable badges. In addition, the results show that attaining a higher level of nonrepeatable badges is associated with an increased effect for knowledge sharing, and that attaining a higher level of repeated badges leads to a decreased effect. These findings can contribute to extant literature by offering a probable explanation regarding why some gamified awards can motivate people better than others.
