Show more Violent video games have attracted much attention due to concerns over their potential to increase player aggression and potentially affect a player's real-world behavior. While most research in this area focuses on their effect on the user's aggression, relatively few studies focus on the impact of violent games on memory and attitude toward advertising that is sometimes present inside. However, these game environments are increasingly used to persuade in serious games and in advertising. Title Advertising effects and aggression in video games : effects of sensory realism cues on brand memory, attitude, and aggression via physiological arousal, affect, and presenceÄescription Violent video games have attracted much attention due to concerns over their potential to increase player aggression and potentially affect a player's real-world behavior. Overall, these findings clarify the role of game mechanics and affordances of the virtual environment as key shapers of user behavior, and demonstrate that gameplay is made up of discrete adaptive behaviors guided by motivated responses to the game environment. Furthermore, individual differences in appetitive and defensive trait motivational reactivity moderated these effects in significant fashion. A series of repeated measures ANOVAs demonstrated that players' adaptively respond to virtual environment affordances to gain benefits and avoid threats, evidenced by facilitated approach behaviors in the absence of threat as well as facilitated avoidance behaviors under threatening circumstances. The moderating role of trait-level motivational reactivity in facilitating and inhibiting motivational responses to the game environment was also examined. Using a custom-designed game with varying threats and resources available to players, the approach and avoidance behavior players exhibit in response to motivationally relevant in-game encounters was examined in a laboratory experiment. The primary prediction was that threats and resources in games will shape initial motivated behaviors to explore and use affordances of the virtual world at variable rates. Therefore, this study incorporates understandings of player motivation with a concept of affordances to build a model of adaptive player behavior in games and virtual environments. Although motivation is essential to guide behavior, not much work has investigated how motivational processes shape in-game behavior.
