Sustainable behavior in the fishing cards digital game: a comparative analysis across extraction patterns.

ABSTRACT: Sustainability is achieved when resources are used to meet current needs without compromising their availability for future generations. This study examined fishing behaviors across age groups using the Fishing Cards digital game. Participants (N = 30) played 40 s rounds, using two types of cards to catch fish: one less powerful and the other with greater capacity for resource extraction. The game consisted of two phases. In Phase 1, resources were unlimited, allowing participants to fish freely. In Phase 2, resources were limited and could be depleted, potentially leading to defeat in the game. The research aimed to examine whether InterResponse Time (IRT) for fishing responses changed and how card selection patterns and resource availability influenced participants' choices. Speci
