A Study to Further Understand the Link Between Immersion and Flow

Flow and immersion are states of extreme concentration on an activity. For serious games, that is games, which focus on achieving learning effects in players, high flow and immersion during gameplay can help to improve these learning effects. Both flow and immersion are currently only measured using questionnaires, which is both delayed and subjective. This work introduces a study, which aims to further the understanding of how flow and immersion are linked and to ease future work towards a new measurement method using physiological data.
