Abstract
The perception of gamification elements differs across users, which is why personalizing gamified systems is important. Past research showed that the Hexad user types model is particularly suitable for this purpose by demonstrating correlations between user types and gamification elements. However, previous studies were mostly survey-based, i.e. relied on participants' rating of gamification elements based on e.g. textual descriptions or storyboards. Thus, the question whether personalization based on Hexad user types provides benefits in implemented gameful systems was neglected. We contribute to this by investigating the effects of (contra-) tailoring the set of gamification elements to a user's Hexad type on performance and user experience, assessed with survey and physiological measures, in an image tagging context. In a lab study (N=29), we found that gamification increases performance and affects psychophysiological measures of arousal. Moreover, we demonstrate that personalization increases enjoyment, positively-valenced affective experiences and participants' absorption in the task at hand.

Hexad-12: Developing and Validating a Short Version of the Gamification User Types Hexad Scale
CHI '23: Proceedings of the 2023 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsThe Hexad scale is a crucial tool for personalized gamification in user experience (UX) design. However, completing a 24-item questionnaire can increase dropout rates and screen fatigue within online surveys. When included in larger surveys, scale ...
The Gamification User Types Hexad Scale
CHI PLAY '16: Proceedings of the 2016 Annual Symposium on Computer-Human Interaction in PlaySeveral studies have indicated the need for personalizing gamified systems to users' personalities. However, mapping user personality onto design elements is difficult. Hexad is a gamification user types model that attempts this mapping but lacks a ...
Personalizing Persuasive Strategies in Gameful Systems to Gamification User Types
CHI '18: Proceedings of the 2018 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsPersuasive gameful systems are effective tools for motivating behaviour change. Research has shown that tailoring these systems to individuals can increase their efficacy; however, there is little knowledge on how to personalize them. We conducted a ...
