T08 CLT: What Does Personality Tell Us About the Mobile Gaming Behavior of Young People?

• In Event: Roundtables - Friday
  In Roundtable Session: Roundtables II - CLT

Short Description

Unprecedented growth coupled with other factors has opened new opportunities for researchers and practitioners to examine how mobile games can be used as a means to support intellectual activities, social skills development, and learning. It has been proposed that the five traits—agreeableness, conscientiousness, extraversion, neuroticism, and openness—may help predict mobile phone use behavior. This session is intended to facilitate discussion among those interested in mobile game research and how personality plays a role.
