摘要：

Background: The influence of each developer's performance on a project's results (e.g., total software development effort) cannot be ignored. To enhance the performance of each developer, there are various approaches such as improving software engineering education and creating development support tools. In this study, we selected gamification and posing (power posing) and evaluated the effects of these approaches on coding. They are expected to improve the mental state and the motivation of developers. Aim: Select which method (gamification or posing) should be used to enhance developers' work efficiency. Method: Subjects created programs based on given specifications. Group A (Gamification was applied to a task) and group B (Posing was applied to a task) were made. We evaluated the coding time of each group. Results: Gamification was more effective than posing for reducing coding time.
