Preface The GamiFIN conference is an annual international academic conference on gamification with rigorous double-blind international peer-review practices. The conference brings together a community of researchers and practitioner to present results from their latest work regarding the gamification. The sixth international GamiFIN conference was organized by the Gamification Group from Tampere University, Finland and took place on April 26-29, 2022. Due to the persisting extraordinary circumstances when international travel is not advised, the conference was held online. GamiFIN 2022 was chaired by the professor of Gamification Juho Hamari and gamification scholar Jonna Koivisto. GamiFIN 2022 featured six prominent scholars in the field as keynotes. During the two main days of the conference, when full papers were presented, GamiFIN 2022 hosted talks by Professor Anton Nijholt (University of Twente, Netherlands), Associate Professor Rita Orji (Dalhousie University, Canada), and Professor Vered Pnueli (Shenkar, Israel). Additionally, as part of the GamiFOREST: A UNITE Symposium, keynotes on the last day of the conference were delivered by Associate Professor Alenda Y. Chang (University of California, Santa Barbara), Professor Klaus Eisenack (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany), and Senior Lecturer Chris Sandbrook (University of Cambridge, United Kingdom). GamiFIN 2022 included four academic full paper sessions across two thematic days: Education and science, and Design and Sustainability. The program structure was based on the areas of the presented papers. We are proud to have had full paper authors presenting from Austria, Brazil, Finland, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, South Africa, and Sweden. The international program committee of the conference consisted of experts on various fields related to gamification. The acceptance rate for submissions was 44.1 %. Apart from the full paper sessions, GamiFIN 2022 hosted following events: a doctoral consortium with three international doctoral candidates and an expert panel of academic supervisors, two poster sessions with a total of eight presentations of works-in-progress, three workshops, and finally the GamiFOREST: A UNITE Symposium. GamiFOREST was hosted in collaboration and as a part of the Academy of Finland Flagship competence center UNITE – Forest-Human-Machine Interplay. It featured extended abstracts dedicated to the exploration of the role of gamification and playful technologies in mediating the human experience of forest areas and of nature in general. Altogether the conference was attended by approximately 80 participants. The GamiFIN 2022 Best Paper award was presented to Nikoletta Zampeta Legaki, Daniel Fernández Galeote and Juho Hamari for their paper "The impact of different gamification types in the context of data literacy: An online experiment”. The GamiFIN 2022 Best Presentation award was presented to Georgina Guillén M., Daniel Fernández Galeote, Nevena Sicevic, Juho Hamari, and Jaco Quist for "Gamified apps for sustainable consumption: A systematic review ". Moreover, the Best Presentation award at this year’s GamiFOREST was presented to Marketa Dolejsova, Andrea Botero, Jaz Hee-Jeong Choi and Cristina Ampatzidou for their extended abstract "Walking in the open forest: Playing with stories and data”. Best paper was selected by a panel from the conference programme committee whereas presentations were selected by participants’ votes during the conference. As a continuation of the GamiFIN conference series, GamiFIN 2023 will be held in Finland. The exact dates and location will be announced during summer 2022.
