An evaluation of personality type pairings to improve video game enjoyment

We examined the effects of personality pairings on enjoyment within two video game scenarios. It was hypothesized that one would enjoy playing with another person who possesses a personality type similar to their own and in a game scenario that matched their personality type. Results showed that cooperative pairings particularly enjoyed playing together. Implications for game design could include a personality survey to maximize enjoyment. 2014 Copyright held by the Owner/Author
