[Dutch-chapter] State of Digital Games Research: International Survey, call for participation

[Jan Van Looy]

Dear colleagues,

Digital games research is a young, growing, multidisciplinary field of 
study. It spans disciplines as diverse as arts, humanities, social 
sciences, psychology, design, computer science, engineering and others. 
This diversity and richness is part of its strength but also one of its 
challenges.

  In order to gain insight into the views and needs of researchers 
working with/on digital games, three research organizations have joined 
hands to organize an international survey assessing the State of Digital 
Games Research.

                - Digital Games Research Association (DiGRA), www.digra.org

                - Digital Games Research Temporary Working Group of the 
European Communication Research and Education Association (ECREA), 
www.digital-games.eu

                - Game Studies Special Interest Group of the 
International Communication Association (ICA), http://game.icahdq.org

Are you conducting or have you conducted research with or on digital 
games, then please take time to fill out the survey which should not 
take more than 10-15 minutes and which can be found here:

Also please distribute this survey as widely as possible within your 
personal network. The wider its reach, the more representative its 
results, which will be presented in the coming months.
