Additional information
<20>Originality: The work reported here is the first to attempt to disentangle specific aspects of the gaming experience in relation to player expertise and the cognitive challenge (rather than physical) challenge offered by digital games. Rigour: the paper uses formal, rigorous experimental methods and moreover uses three experiments rather than rely on the findings of a single study. Significance: this paper received an Honorable Mention (top 5% of papers at the conference).
