Abstract:

Self-regulation is the process of adjusting one's cognition and behavior to achieve goals. It is closely related to learning, sports performance, and more. Exploring the Measurement and Application of Self-regulation in the Esports Community Based on Self-regulation Theory. Study 1 surveyed 535 college student gamers and revised the Chinese version of the Game Self-Regulation Scale (GSRS). Study 2 investigated the relationship between game self-regulation and ranking performance among 112 "League of Legends" gamers. Study 3 examined differences in game self-regulation between 28 professional "Honor of Kings" players and 28 amateur gamers. The results revealed that: (1) The Chinese version of the Game Self-Regulation Scale demonstrates good reliability and validity; (2) Game self-regulation can predict 6.9~9.3% of player rankings; (3) Esports professionals exhibit higher game self-regulation than amateur gamers. The positive association between gaming self-regulation and e-sports expertise was validated through the revised Gaming Self-Regulation Scale, which provides a new measurement tool for e-sports assessment, selection, and research.
