How games induce cooperation? A study on the relationship between game features and we-intentions in an augmented reality game

作者:

Highlights:

• Players' use of cooperative game features is associated with we-intention.

• This association is mediated by group dynamics:

• group norms, social identity, joint commitment, attitudes and anticipated emotions.

• Overall, players' use of single player features was not associated with we-intentions.

• Features of cooperative games can support practitioners cultivating cooperation.
