Evidence¶

Liuyufeng Li 2024¶

Liuyufeng Li, Khe Foon Hew, Jiahui Du. (2024). Gamification enhances student intrinsic motivation, perceptions of autonomy and relatedness, but minimal impact on competency: a meta-analysis and systematic review. Education Tech Research Dev. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11423-023-10337-7

q3 · i3 · quant-synthesis · r2

Random-effects meta-analysis pooling the four interventions that reported relatedness data. The article reports a large significant effect, but the estimate rests on only four interventions, so it should be treated cautiously.

"Only four independent interventions reported statistical data on relatedness, and these data showed that gamification significantly facilitated the students' perceptions of relatedness (Hedges' g = 1.776, 95% CI [0.737, 2.814], p = 0.001)"
