Caution with Biometrics, Game Evaluation and UX

Using bio­met­rics for psy­chophys­i­o­log­i­cal eval­u­a­tion is becom­ing a pop­u­lar approach in game user research. While results of this work can look stun­ning, exper­i­men­tal con­trol is impor­tant if you want to inter­pret your data in a way that is robust.

Combining eye tracking and biometrics with game metrics logging

The Research Paper Based on col­lab­o­ra­tive work between Blekinge Institute of Technology, Sweden and Otto-von-Guericke University, Germany, we recently pub­lished a paper on the inte­gra­tion of game met­rics log­ging with bio­met­ric mea­sures (as well as eye track­ing). It was titled “Log Who’s Playing: Psychophysiological Game Analysis Made Easy through Event Logging” and is avail­able in the [...]
