Welcome! In this session you will work on a problem-solving task and answer questions about your experience.
Please read the instructions carefully. You will receive a Cougar Cash payment for participating in and
completing this study (in addition to any course credit that is being offered). The sum of your payment is in part
dependent on your performance.
A record of your participation in this research study will be maintained, but only for purposes of Cougar Cash
payment. This record will be kept strictly confidential – only the research personnel will have access to it.
Your participation in this study will require you to work on a computerized task and answer questions about your
experience. This study involves minimal risk to you. The benefits, however, may impact society by helping increase
knowledge about individual performance and decision-making.
Your participation in this study is voluntary. You do not have to answer any question that
you do not want to answer for any reason. However, if you withdraw from the study before you have reached the end,
you will not receive credit or payment. If you have further questions about this project or if you have a research-related
problem you may contact the researcher, Steven Smith, at stevesmith@byu.edu.
If you have questions about your rights as a study participant or are dissatisfied at any time with any aspect of
this study, you may contact (anonymously, if you wish) the Institutional Review Board by email at irb@byu.edu.
Continuing with the study implies your consent to participate. If you agree to participate, please click the
