Thank you for participating in this experiment. An experimenter is on standby at this time to answer any questions you have. If you need assistance at any time during the experiment, please send an email to the experimenter Xiaohong Wang: xiw131@pitt.edu


Please click “Next” to read the instruction. When you have finished the instruction, you will be asked to complete a short quiz to ensure that you understand the experiment and how participant earnings will be determined.

{% elif r_num == 2%}

All participants will be randomly divided into 2 roles: Player A and Player B.


Player As have a 50% chance of winning and a 50% chance of losing. Player Bs can change Player As' winning chances by selecting a specific emoji.


Monetary values are assigned when you win or lose depending on a lottery. There are two possible lotteries:

{% elif r_num == 3%}

Player Bs have 60 seconds to select peace signs among 100 emojis. There are 50 (peace signs) and 50 (fingers crossed signs) in each grid. Each selected peace sign increases the chances of winning by 0.5 percentage points. Each selected fingers crossed sign decreases the chances of winning by 0.5 percentage points. The winning chances will be from 25% (selecting all fingers crossed signs) to 75% (selecting all peace signs).

EXAMPLE: if Player B selected 49 peace signs and 3 fingers crossed signs, Player A has a 73% (50+(49-3)*0.5) chance of winning and a 27% (100-73) chance of losing.

Player As will have an option to allocate the final outcome between herself/himself and Player Bs.

{% elif r_num == 4 %}

{% if strike == 0 %} {% else %} Please recall: {% endif %} You are randomly assigned to be Player A.

You will play 6 rounds of the game. In each round, you will be randomly rematched with a Player B who has completed the emoji selection task. The computer will run a lottery with probabilities determined by the result of Player B’s emoji selection task.


You will play {{ case_count_2 }} rounds of Lottery 1 (Win - you get ${{ low_win }} or Lose - you get ${{ low_lose }}), and {{ case_count_3 }} rounds of Lottery 2 (Win - you get ${{ high_win }} or Lose - you get ${{ high_lose }}) in a random order. {% if treatment == "C" %} You will be shown which lottery you played and the outcome. {% elif treatment == "T1" %} You will be shown which lottery you played and the outcome, and by how much player B changed the winning probability. {% elif treatment == "T2" %} You will be shown which lottery you played and the outcome, and by how much player B changed your winning probability. You will also watch a short video on how Player B worked to change your winning probability. {% endif %} You then have an opportunity to share your earnings with Player B.


One of the 6 rounds will be randomly selected to determine your earning. Your final payment will be the money you decide to keep for yourself in that round, $1 show-up fee and a payment of $1 after you complete the tasks and the post-game questionnaire.


Please read these instructions carefully. The game will start after you correctly complete a short comprehension quiz.


If you DO NOT answer all questions correctly after two tries, you will be excluded from the experiment.
