    <h2>Key Information</h2>

    <div class="consent-scroll">
      <h3>What Am I Being Asked To Do?</h3>
      <p>You are being asked to be a volunteer in a research study. This page provides key information to help you decide whether to participate. Participation is voluntary.</p>

      <h3>What Is This Study About and What Procedures Will You Be Asked to Follow?</h3>
      <p>The study investigates how individuals make decisions in an organizational setting. Expected duration is about 10 minutes.</p>

      <h3>Are There Any Risks or Discomforts?</h3>
      <p>No risks beyond those ordinarily encountered when completing online information in daily life are expected.</p>

      <h3>What Are the Reasons You Might Want to Volunteer?</h3>
      <p>You are unlikely to directly benefit, but your participation may help researchers understand how elements of performance feedback affect employee performance.</p>

      <p><strong>Compensation:</strong> Base pay of $2; additional payment is possible based on your decisions in the experiment.</p>

      <h3>Do You Have to Take Part?</h3>
      <p>Participation is entirely your choice. You may decline or withdraw at any time without penalty or loss of benefits.</p>

Base pay is $2; additional payment may be earned based on your decisions. Demographic questions will be asked before exiting. Payment is via Prolific upon approval.</p>

      <h3>Risks or Discomforts</h3>
      <p>No greater than minimal risk associated with typical online activities.</p>

      <h3>Benefits</h3>
      <p>No direct benefits are expected; results may aid research into performance feedback and employee performance.</p>

      <h3>Compensation</h3>
      <p>Base pay of $2; additional performance-based payment possible. Compensation via Prolific upon approval.</p>
      <p>U.S. tax law may require tax reporting (e.g., 1099-MISC at ≥ $600/year for U.S. residents; 30% withholding for some non-U.S. cases). Address and Tax I.D. may be collected by Georgia Tech solely for compensation processing, if applicable.</p>

      <h3>Confidentiality</h3>
      <p>Responses will be de-identified; results reported in aggregate. Records may be reviewed by the Georgia Tech IRB and the Office of Human Research Protections as required by law. Note: the experiment is not hosted on a secure credit-card-grade server; while unlikely, unauthorized access is possible. Web servers may log your IP address; otherwise, no additional information is stored unless explicitly entered by you.</p>
