Title Brain Activity Measurement in Gaming: Baming
AuthorsNATHAN NOSSAL
Abstract

A brief review connecting aspects of game theory, game refinement theory, and brain imaging of players while gaming was undertaken to highlight arcs of discovery underway. We will show that fNIRS is a heretofore underused brain measurement technology; that game theory concepts have suffered from a dearth of experimental evidence, but also that f NIRS has already been used to produce significant results in experiments involving players during gaming. This research shows that since all three are true, experimentation using fNIRS presents as a promising avenue for improving and expanding on standard and emerging concepts in game theory and recreational game studies. We develop this idea and call it BAMING--brain activity measurement in gaming, and propose the next in a series of fNIRS BAMING experiments. Key Words: Game Refinement Theory, Game Theory, General Gaming, fNIRS, Superior Frontal Gyrus.
