Persuasion and Gamification – what do we mean by this

The topic of „Motivation“ was already the central element of the RoX conference in 2017. In particular the top-class speakers were talking about how motivation influences user experience design. Two relevant design strategies relating to motivation are persuasion and gamification. For us, these two concepts help us to create a profound theory and to decide the right ideas. So, what do we mean exactly by this?

Persuasion

Design is influencing our doing significantly. Persuasive elements provide impulses and motivations to do specific activities more easily. In other words, how is it possible to persuade users to do actions we would like them to do. The design strategy and the concept design determine the persuasive methodologies which will fit the tasks and meet the needs of the target groups. Thereby, we use persuasive elements like shortage, authority and emotion.

Gamification

Let’s face it, who does not like playing games? In this context, we need to answer the most important question “why like users to play or not to play“. Relevant gamification elements like attainment, self-determination or status help to answer the “why” question. The design strategy examines and integrate these gamification elements from the user’s point of view.
