In this experiment, you will be randomly placed into a group of two players: a Blue player and a Green player.
There will be one round in the experiment. In this round, you and the other player in your group will communicate via a chat box. After communicating in the chat box, the Blue player and the Green player will choose one of two actions, H or L. If you are the Blue player, it means that you will be paired with the Green player. Similarly, if you are the Green player you will be paired with the Blue player.
The earnings of the Green player will depend on their own action and the Blue player’s action. Similarly, the earnings of the Blue player will depend on their own action and the Green player’s action.
The table below shows how the earnings for the Blue and the Green player depend on their actions. This means that:
Blue player's action | Green player's action | Blue player's earnings | Green player's earnings |
H | H | {{C.PAYOFF_MUTUAL_H}} | {{C.PAYOFF_MUTUAL_H}} |
H | L | {{C.PAYOFF_H_WHEN_HL}} | {{C.PAYOFF_L_WHEN_HL}} |
L | H | {{C.PAYOFF_L_WHEN_HL}} | {{C.PAYOFF_H_WHEN_HL}} |
L | L | {{C.PAYOFF_MUTUAL_L}} | {{C.PAYOFF_MUTUAL_L}} |
