You are being asked to take part in a research study being done by Clémentine Van Effenterre from University of Toronto. The purpose of this research is to better understand decision-making processes. Your participation will take approximately XX minutes to complete. This study has several parts. As a participant, you will complete cognitive tests of multiple-choice questions, answer a series of questions about those tests, and answer a short follow-up questionnaire. In each part, you will receive clear instructions and will be told how your decisions in that part will influence your earnings in the experiment. Your earnings may also depend on the decisions of other participants in the laboratory right now.
This study does not deceive participants. We provide you with clear, truthful, and full information.
There are different versions of this study. While you will be fully informed about the version of this study that you have been randomly assigned to, you will not be informed about different versions of this study that other participants are in.
