Game-Based Trust

چکیده
Trust stands at the beginning of every meaningful interaction between members of any kind of community – be it in the real world or in a virtual one. But how could an application look like that helps to create or even foster the interpersonal trust of its users? We developed a game – Kokochi – with the goal to positively affect the interpersonal trust level of its players. We evaluated Kokochi in two case studies and compared the results with a control group that didn ́t play the game. We could show that playing the game – featuring three unique game elements to enhance trust: disclosure of personal information (emotional statements), collaborations (face-to-face) and showing goodwill towards other players (virtual hugging) – resulted in an (significant) higher interpersonal trust level of the subjects after the game than they had before.

In Studies 1a and 1b, we find that altruistic lies increase trust when dec...
