Our group did a investigated adolescents' progression throughout a videogame using:

1. demographic data,
2. happiness ratings,
3. final skill levels,
4. risk metrics and
5. percentage complete game progression

by classifying their categories into 3:

Prioritisation

• The team checked their overall final skills and skill progression by gender, ethnicity, risk metric and found subtle differences in their final skill levels.
• We also attempted to see if there was any difference on the skill progression by checking different schools.

Perseverance

• Our group compared the maximum attempts made by teenagers - examined by gender, ethnicity, and school.

Perception

• We explored their satisfaction when they have completed the game.

Programs used

For analysis and presentation, R was used.

Conclusion

1. The effect of demographics was consistent across prioritisation and perseverance.
2. There is a strong potential for using the characteristics of perception as significant predictor of identifying individuals who are more inclined towards risk taking behaviours.
