The value of your asset {{if player.time_pressure == 1}} in the 4th quarter is {{else}} at the end of this year is {{endif}}
{{player.qrt4}} points. Over the next four quarters, the value of your asset can increase or decrease by 100 points each
quarter. This means the value of your asset
{{if player.time_pressure == 1}} in the 8th quarter {{else}} at the end f next year {{endif}}
can:
{{elif player.qrt4 == 800}}
{{elif player.qrt4 == 1000}}
{{elif player.qrt4 == 1200}}

Since these outcomes (increase, stay the same, and decrease) are mutually exclusive, the probabilities you assign to them should add up to 100%.
In the next three tasks, you will face a list of choices similar to the figure below but with different Option B. In this example, for each choice, you will decide between Option A and Option B:
For example, in Choice 11, you would prefer Option A if you believe the probability
of the asset value increasing is less than 35%. Conversely, you would prefer Option B if you believe the probability
of the asset value increasing is greater than 35%.

On the next page, you will be asked, "What is 2 + 2?" You must answer 10 instead of 4.
If your answer is incorrect, you will be redirected back to this page to re-read the instructions.
We imagine that most people would choose Option A in Choice 1, as it guarantees 1000 points, compared to Option B, which only offers a chance to receive 1000 points. Conversely, we imagine that most people will choose Option B in Choice 20, as it provides a chance to earn 1000 points, whereas Option A guarantees 0 point.
Thus, we imagine that most people will switch from choosing Option A to Option B at some point in the list. Since the chance of getting 1000 points in Option A decreases as you move down the list, we assume that if you choose Option B in one choice, you will choose Option B for all subsequent choices.
The computer will select one choice at random to be paid for real.
