<p class="info">This paper presents a sociocultural analysis of the representation of gender, race, and identity in mobile games. It explores how mobile games construct social identities through character design, narrative framing, and player interaction. The research examines the ways in which game developers can either reinforce or challenge societal stereotypes and cultural norms, with a particular focus on gender dynamics in both player avatars and character roles. Drawing on critical theories of representation, postcolonial studies, and feminist media studies, the study explores the implications of these representations for player self-perception and broader societal trends related to gender equality and diversity.</p> <a href="https://uqratt.mit-edu.top/post/9740126538" class="post-author d-flex align-items-center"> <div class="author-pic"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/user/18.jpg" alt="Modeling Loss Aversion in High-Stakes Game Scenarios" title="Modeling Loss Aversion in High-Stakes Game Scenarios" class="lazyload"> </div> <div class="text"> <strong>Joyce Stevens</strong> <span>2025-01-31 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://uqratt.mit-edu.top/post/9628314075"> <img src="https://x.mit-edu.top/static/images/post/11.jpg" alt="Designing Sustainable Games: Carbon-Neutral Approaches to Game Development" title="Designing Sustainable Games: Carbon-Neutral Approaches to Game Development" class="img-fluid lazyload"> </a> </div> <div class="content"> <div class="post-meta mb-3"> <a href="https://blog-9628314075.mit-edu.top/post/9628314075/" target="_blank"> <span class="date">2025-01-31</span> </a> </div> <h2 class="heading"><a href="https://uqratt.mit-edu.top/post/9628314075">Designing Sustainable Games: Carbon-Neutral Approaches to Game Development</a></h2> <p class="info">This research explores the role of ethical AI in mobile game design, focusing on how AI can be used to create fair and inclusive gaming experiences.
