You will play the task asking to recognize the value and the country of Euro coin one more time: again, you will receive $0.30 per coin you identify correctly.
Before starting the coin recognition task, you have the possibility to purchase some news related to it.
We will give you 12 different news with different levels of usefulness to help you performing the coin task. The price of each news is $0.10 and you can buy none/some/all news available using the $1.2 initial endowment. Therefore £3 of show-up fee are always granted.
News are placed in green boxes in a random order. First you will decide how many news you want to buy, and then you will choose which news you want to read by clicking on the corresponding box.
Participants to previous sessions of this study have been allowed to leave some feedback on the usefulness of the news. Specifically:
they could highlight the utility by selecting the stars to attach to the news (1 star means NO UTILITY AT ALL and 5 stars mean MAXIMUM UTILITY). Note that NO STAR just means that no one has added stars to the news.
they could leave comments.
{{ if player.participant.secondgen == "T3" }}Among all participants, you will see the feedback left by the ones born in even months (February, April, June, August, October, December).{{ endif }} For each news you will see the number of {{ if player.participant.secondgen == "T3" }} such {{ else }} other {{ endif }} participants who have read the news, the stars that have been possibly given (and by how many participants), and comments, if any.
Once you are done with the reading of the news and the feedbacks, you can move on to the coin recognition task.
