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. At the beginning of the experiment, Player As have some endowment, while Player Bs do not have any endowment.
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.
{% 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 B.
You will do 5 rounds of the emoji selection tasks. In each round, you will be matched with a different Player A. After you finish selecting the emojis, your score will be revealed and you will be asked to write a message to Player A. Since Player As are different in every round, the message should not include comparisons to previous rounds (e.g “I did better than last rounds”.). Your message may or may not be sent to the Player A.
Your bonus earnings will be determined from what all the five Player As shared with you.
For today, you will receive $1 show-up fee and a payment of $1 after you complete the tasks and the post-game questionnaire. You will receive your bonus payment, if any, in the next 30 days.
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.
