Abstract
Abuse of drug cause serious problems around the world by years. Thus, anti-drug materials have been increasingly developed. However, conventional anti-drug materials had limited effects on preventing drugs abuse, especially for drug addictive users. To this end, game-based anti-drug materials have been considered as a promising approach to deal with the issue in this study. As far as the drug-addicted experience is concerned, how drug addictive users and drug non-addictive users interacted with the game-based anti-drug materials is analyzed. The results revealed that the drug-addicted experience influenced users' performance of accessing information during gaming process, preference of completing tasks and the approach to reach goals. ? 2017 IEEE.
