The Influence of the Gamer Organizational Citizenship Behavior on Game Continuance Intention : Based on Lineage2  

Ahn, Ji-Hoon (Dept. of Game Contents, Graduate School of Film and Digital Media, Hongik University)
Abstract
In this study, we identify the Influence of Gamer Organizational Citizenship Behavior on Game Continuance Intention. Also, we provide insight into a way to induce altruistic and conformist behaviors based on our observations. We established a hypothesis based on Organizational Citizenship Behavior theory and verified it with 134 active gamers of Lineage 2. Our results demonstrate that gamers' group behaviors, such as altruistic and conformist behaviors, have significant impact on Game Continuance Intention.
