What is The Diversity of Gamification Evaluation in the Software Engineering Education and Industry: Trends, Comparisons and Gaps about?

Context: gamification has been used to motivate and engage participants in software engineering education and practice activities. Problem: There is a significant demand for empirical studies for the understanding of the impacts and efficacy of gamification. However, the lack of standard procedures and models for the evaluation of gamification is a challenge for the design, comparison, and report of results related to the assessment of gamification approaches and its effects. Goal: The goal of this study is to identify models and strategies for the evaluation of gamification reported in the literature. Method: To achieve this goal, we conducted a systematic mapping study to investigate strategies for the evaluation of gamification in the context of software engineering. We selected 100 primary studies on gamification in software engineering (from 2011 to 2020). We categorized the studies regarding the presence of evaluation procedures or models for the evaluation of gamification, the purpose of the evaluation, the criteria used, the type of data, instruments, and procedures for data analysis. Results: Our results show that 64 studies report procedures for the evaluation of gamifica
