fostering virtual empathy, analyzing how game narratives, character design, and player interactions contribute to emotional understanding and compassion. By applying theories of empathy and emotion, the study explores how players engage with in-game characters and scenarios that evoke emotional responses, such as moral dilemmas or relationship-building. The paper investigates the psychological effects of empathetic experiences within mobile games, considering the potential benefits for social learning and emotional intelligence. It also addresses the ethical concerns surrounding the manipulation of emotions in games, particularly in relation to vulnerable populations and sensitive topics.</p> <a href="https://blog-6358197042.mit-edu.top/post/6912435780" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/3.jpg" alt="Mobile Games for Skill Acquisition: A Cognitive Load Perspective" title="Mobile Games for Skill Acquisition: A Cognitive Load Perspective" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Alexander Ward</strong> <span>2025-02-08 published post</span> </div> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="col-lg-12"> <div class="post-entry d-md-flex small-horizontal mb-5"> <div class="me-md-5 thumbnail mb-3 mb-md-0"> <a href="https://blog-6358197042.mit-edu.top/post/7935816402"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/20.jpg" alt="Exploring Immersion Metrics in AR-Driven Mobile Game Experiences" title="Exploring Immersion Metrics in AR-Driven Mobile Game Experiences" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-7935816402.mit-edu.top/post/7935816402/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-02-08</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://blog-6358197042.mit-edu.top/post/7935816402">Exploring Immersion Metrics in AR-Driven Mobile Game Experiences</a></h2> <p class="info">This paper explores the evolution of digital narratives in mobile gaming from a posthumanist perspective, focusing on the shifting relationships between players, avatars, and game worlds.
