This research aimed to develop metaverse virtual learning management based on gamification techniques model (MVLM-Gt model) and to evaluate the appropriateness of the model. The research methodology was divided into two parts in accordance with these aims. The first part was the design of the learning step using metaverse virtual learning management and gamification techniques based on the gamification process and active learning theory. The second part consisted of an evaluation of the appropriateness of the model. The MVLM-Gt model was submitted to seven experts followed by an appropriateness questionnaire. The MVLM-Gt model had four core components: the inputs, the learning process, the evaluation, and the feedback. The learning process had five steps: motivation and setting goals, constructing content, discussion and interaction, practice and mission, and summarizing and feedback. After evaluation of the appropriateness of the MVLM-Gt model, the experts said that it was excellent (Mean=4.82, S.D.=0.38). After considering each component, the feedback component had the highest appropriateness value (Mean=5.00, S.D.=0.00), followed by the learning process component (Mean= 4.86, S.D.=0.38), and the evaluation component (Mean=4.71, S.D.=0.49). The results showed that this MVLM-Gt model could be adopted to enhance total experience of students.

“…However, because gamification is still in its infancy, there is often a lack of a theoretical underpinning for some of the gamification proposals [44]. Consequently, recent studies have shown an interest in the use of theory in the gamification of various domains [45]. Likewise, several studies have used design models when gamifying systems.…”

Organizations have moved away from traditional classroom-based training to online training whereby employees can attend courses at their convenience either at home or in the workplace. This transition has been fuelled by lockdowns that governments worldwide have implemented to counter the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, where employees are expected to work or attend training from home. However, several issues including lack of employee engagement hinder the effective delivery of online corporate training. In recent years, gamification has been identified as a solution to lack of engagement in education. Gamification involves the incorporation of game elements into non-game applications to encourage user engagement, where different combinations are used for different learning contexts. However, little research has been done to identify suitable game elements for the gamification of corporate online training. This study proposes a set of game elements to improve employee engagement with online training platforms. A step-by-step analysis of the literature led to the identification of nine potentially suitable game elements. These elements were evaluated by a group of experts selected from five well-known training providers in Saudi Arabia, who completed a semi-structured interview questionnaire about the usability, completeness, and usefulness of the elements. The result of the evaluation indicated that the identified game elements will be able to effectively and efficiently improve employee engagement. The set of nine game elements was then incorporated into a proposed framework for the gamification of online training platforms to enhance employee engagement.

“…The majority of research endeavors have focused on enhancing cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques across skills by incorporating a variety of gamification elements. 15 , 16 , 19 – 22 Only one study 26 has utilized the Hexad theory with gamification components but for diagnosis rather than treatment. Although the hexad theory idea is well-known in the field of user experience design, its application in treatment—specifically, in games that are based on CBT—is still relatively new.…”

Background Depression and anxiety are prevalent mental health issues addressed by online cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) via mobile applications. This study introduces Sokoon, a gamified CBT app tailored for Arabic individuals, focusing on alleviating depression and anxiety symptoms (DASDs). Objectives The objectives of this study were to: Evaluate the effectiveness of Sokoon in reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety. Assess the usability of the intervention through user engagement and adherence to CBT skills. Methods A single-group pre–post design evaluated Sokoon's impact on adults with DASDs. In consultation with psychiatrists, Sokoon integrates evidence-based skills such as relaxation, gratitude, behavioral activation, and cognitive restructuring, represented by planets. Its design incorporates Hexad theory and gamification, supported by a dynamic difficulty adjustment algorithm. The study involves 30 participants aged 18–35 (86.7% female), specifically those with mild to moderate depression and anxiety. Results Based on a sample of 30 participants, Sokoon, a smartphone-based intervention, significantly reduced symptoms of depression and anxiety (d = 2.7, d = 3.6, p < 0.001). Over a two-week trial, participants experienced a notable decrease in anxiety and depressive symptoms, indicating the effectiveness of the model. Sokoon shows potential as a valuable tool for addressing DASDs. Conclusion Sokoon, the gamified CBT application, offers an innovative approach to increasing CBT skills adherence and engagement. By leveraging Hexad theory and gamification, Sokoon provides an enjoyable and engaging user experience while maintaining the effectiveness of traditional CBT techniques. The study findings suggest that Sokoon has a positive impact on reducing symptoms of depression and anxiety.
