    <h3>
        EXPERIMENT DETAILS
    </h3>
    
    <p>
        We are conducting short experiments which 
        involve solving a real effort task called 
        “Counting Zeros”. We are also collecting data on
         your personality characteristics along with 
         demographic information. This experiment is 
         funded by the Centre for Innovative Data in 
         Economics Research (CIDER) at the Vancouver 
         School of Economics. It will contribute to a 
         graduate dissertation.

    <h3>
        TODAYS'S TASKS
    </h3>
    <p>
        If you consent to participating in the study,
         you will be given detailed instructions for 
         the experiment on the next page. Once you 
         have gone over the instructions, you will 
         begin the tasks. After completing the tasks, 
         you will be asked to answer a short survey 
         on your personal characteristics. Once you 
         complete the experiment, you will be asked 
         to enter the completion code you see on the 
         last page, on Prolific. The experimenter 
         will review your submission, and transfer 
         your payment to your Prolific account in 
         less than 24 hours.

    <h3>
        INCENTIVES
    </h3>
    <p>
        You will receive £2.34 ($2.92) for completing the experiment. 
    </p>
   
    <p>
    You will receive £0.10 for every correct grid you answer as a part of the task. 
    You may also receive a bonus payment of £0.8 ($1), which will be explained later in the experiment. 
    Thus, your payment will range between £2.34 - £4.14 ( $2.92 - $5.17)

    <h3>
        SUBJECT'S RIGHTS
    </h3>
    <p>
        Your participation in the study is entirely 
        voluntary. You may refuse to participate or 
        withdraw from the study at any time. You 
        have the right to choose to not answer 
        some or any of the questions. Your 
        completion of the experiment indicates your 
        consent to participate in the study. 
    </p>
    <br>
    <h3>
        PRIVACY
    </h3>
    <p>
       Your study data will be handled as carefully 
       and as confidentially as possible, to the 
       extent allowed by law. Researchers will not 
       have access to any of your personal information, 
       only your Prolific ID. During data collection, 
       your data will be stored online on O-tree 
       servers and the survey team and the research 
       team will have access to it. Later, it will 
       be stored in encrypted OneDrive folders and 
       only the research team will have access to it. 
    </p>
    <br>
    <h3>
        OPEN ACCESS
    </h3>
    <p>
        The research team may submit the results from 
        this paper to an academic journal for publication. 
        Some journals require that data be made accessible 
        to other researchers. When this happens, data is 
        often uploaded as supplemental material online with 
        the paper, thus providing access to anyone with 
        access to the journal. In such an event, the 
        research team will remove personal identifiers 
        before the data is made public. Once the data is 
        made available, you will not be able to withdraw 
        your data. By consenting to participating in this 
        study, you consent to your de-identified data being 
        made open access sometime in the future.
