Dear Participant,

Thank you for your interest in participating in our study. Please take your time to read the following text carefully. By choosing the option "I have read and understood the conditions outlined above..." and pressing the button “next”, you confirm that you have read the information presented and that you are willing to participate in the study. If you are not willing to participate after reading the following text, you can choose the option " I don't agree to the collection, storage, and use of my data as described above. I decide to leave." and pressing the button "next" to quit the experiment.

This study is a research project of the Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Human Development. The data collected will be used for research purposes only. We will collect information about your choices (which rows of each game you will select). Prolific will also allow us to see your gender and age. We will receive a code that will be linked to your choices, and we will receive no other information about you and will not be able to link this information to your name. Your anonymity is guaranteed.

The study data (but not personal data) may be shared with cooperation partners for collaborative analysis. The study data may also be made publicly accessible via research databases or scientific publications (typically via the Internet). This makes it possible for other researchers to check or replicate the results of the study and enhances the quality of scientific research. The study data may also be used for new research questions going beyond the purposes of this particular study. Please note that once study data are publicly accessible, its further distribution by others cannot be ruled out, and that this is beyond the area of influence or responsibility of the MPI for Human Development. Therefore, as a matter of principle, study data are only transferred or made publicly accessible without personal data.

Participation is voluntary
