From a survey with 221 respondents, the result unveils that need for cognition (NFC) enhances the likelihood in experiencing playfulness in computer game. Experiencing playfulness then leads to encountering enjoyment, and subsequently enjoyment positively influences the likelihood of expressing both social identity and self-identity, especially for male.
