Primary outcomes

  1. Usability (10-item Game Usability Scale)

    Time frame: 1 time

    we will ask each participant to complete a Game Usability Scale3 which is a robust and highly recommended 10-item measure of usability developed for software testing that provides a global view of subjective assessments of usability.

  2. Satisfaction

    Time frame: 1 time

    (users' subjective reactions to using the system) After the game play session, we will have participants complete an Avatar and Situation Menu Questionnaire so that participants can give feedback on 3 different avatars and 15 different coping with smoking challenges regarding how relevant each is to them as a smoker or someone trying to avoid smoking.
