Intervention(s)
|
The intervention being studied is a video game called "Re-Mission"TM (HopeLab, Redwood City, CA). The study involved 3 conditions:
1. An intervention group playing Re-Mission at high challenge (n=85)
2. An intervention group playing Re-Mission at low challenge (n=81)
3. A control group of no challenge (n=50), presented with illustrated pictures of Re-Mission
As opposed to low challenge, high challenge was conceptualized as a condition that arises from a set of obstacles that prevent the players from attaining their goals in the game.
