Hello!
I was working on one of my research papers about gamification and I want to use Octalysis Framework of Yu-Kai Chou but I didn't find anywhere if it is okay to use the free tool present on website (with citations, of course) or if it is necessary to email the creator to ask if I can use the model. Any of you in this situation?
I am very grateful for all the answers! Thank you!
Dear Adina Adina ,
If I understand your question correctly, I assume you can use it and cite. See for example:
Daphne, Economou; Ioannis, Doumanis; Frands, Pedersen; Paresh, Kathrani; Markos, Mentzelopoulos; Vassiliki, Bouki (2015). "Evaluation of a dynamic role-playing platform for simulations based on Octalysis gamification framework". Ambient Intelligence and Smart Environments. IOS Press. 19 (Workshop Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Intelligent Environments): 388–395. doi:10.3233/978-1-61499-530-2-388

Best regards.
The framework is based on the premise that systems are “function-focused”, designed to complete a task as quickly as possible, similar to a factory process assuming workers will complete their tasks in a timely manner because they are required to do so. Conversely, human-focused design acknowledges that people, unlike machines in a system have feelings, insecurities, and reasons why they want or do not want to do certain things, and therefore, optimizes for their feelings, motivations, and engagement. Per the definition of gamification, octalysis framework will be appropriate model if your operation definition does not deviate from the general idea of gamification.
