[Air-l] Question about psychological aspects of online games

[Irina Shklovski]

Janet you may want to take a look at Fleming Seay's work on this. 
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~afseay/
He focused on role of player motivation in usage outcomes and some of 
his outcomes were psychological (depressive affect, etc).

Good luck,

Irina
