We use data from a popular German Question & Answer community where goals are represented in the form of badges. In particular, our analysis of this data hinges on the fact, that in this Question & Answer community, badges in a hierarchical badge system are in-creasingly challenging to attain up to a certain badge. After this certain badge, the difficulty level sud-denly drops and remains constant throughout up to the last badge in the hierarchy. Our findings indi-cate that after successful badge achievement users increase their subsequent effort to attain the next badge, but only as long as badges represent a challenge to the user. According to our analysis, we identify self-learning to be the key driver of this behavior."}],"publication":"Proceedings of the 24th Conference on Information Systems (ECIS), Istanbul","file_date_updated":"2018-03-21T10:40:27Z","citation":{"short":"T. von Rechenberg, D.
