Let’S Get Serious About Play: a Hedonic Vs. Eudaimonic Investigation of Goal-Based Mixed Affective Experiences
This research investigates factors of goal-based mixed play experiences. Perceived effort corresponds positively to consumer judgment and perceived fun of the mixed (vs. pure positive) play experiences. Outcome-oriented thinking encourages a eudaimonic lens unaltered by cognitive load while process-oriented thinking shifts to a hedonic lens moderated by cognitive load.
