N2 - Recently, Human Computation Games have been utilized in mobile information sharing applications to provide a more engaging experience for sharing information on the go. We examine how players' satisfaction of three basic psychological needs from gameplay as well as perceptions of information quality influence gameplay enjoyment in three dimensions: affective, cognitive, and behavioral. In a study of 185 participants, our findings indicate that autonomy and competence needs are positively related to behavioral and cognitive dimensions of enjoyment respectively, while relatedness need is positively associated with both affective and cognitive enjoyment dimensions. Further, perceived information relevancy has significant positive effects on all enjoyment dimensions. The implications of these findings are discussed.
