Understanding users by their D.I.S.C. personality through interactive gaming

Abstract

A key component of improving human-computer interaction is through the matching of users with their preferred computer interfaces and interaction styles. Understanding the users better would result in a customized gaming experience, leading to sustained user engagement. In this paper, we develop an alternative tool to aid in the measurement of the D.I.S.C. personality styles of users in the form of an interactive game. Through this game, we aim to predict the personality type of the gamer, from which invaluable insights about each type of gamer can be elicited. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.
