{% trans 'Rounds and groups' %}. {% blocktrans with rounds=rounds %} The experiment consists of {{ rounds }} rounds. {% endblocktrans %} {% blocktrans with stringnum1=stringnum1 stringnum2=stringnum2 %} At the beginning of each round, you will be randomly matched with {{ stringnum1 }} other people in this session to form a group of {{ stringnum2 }}. {% endblocktrans %} {% blocktrans %} All members of your group will assume the role of students applying for a school. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Types' %}. {% blocktrans %} Each group contains one of each of the five different student types: Student 1, Student 2, Student 3, Student 4 and Student 5. {% endblocktrans %} {% blocktrans %} Student types are randomly assigned at the beginning of the experiment and remain the same throughout the experiment. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Schools and slots' %}. {% blocktrans %} For each group of participants, five schools are available: A, B, C, D, and E. Each school has one slot. Each school slot is allocated to one student. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Ranking decision' %}. {% blocktrans %} In each round, you will be asked to rank the schools to indicate your preferences on a list (preference list). Note that you need to rank all five schools in order to indicate your preferences. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Earnings' %}. {% blocktrans %} Your earnings in each round depend on the school you are assigned to at the end of each round. Your assignment to a school depends on your type, your choices, and the choices made by the other four students in your group. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans with rounds=rounds participant_fee=participant_fee %} There will be {{ rounds }} rounds. At the end, two of these rounds will be chosen randomly (with all rounds being equally likely to be chosen). Your total earnings will equal the sum of your earnings in these two randomly chosen rounds, plus {{ participant_fee }} for your participation in the experiment. At the end of the experiment, you will be informed about the rounds chosen, your earnings in those rounds, and the total earnings. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} For each student, each school is associated with a different number of points. You can think of this number of points as reflecting how desirable a school is to a student in terms of location and quality of education. The earnings for each of the five student types are outlined in the following table. {% endblocktrans %}
| {% for student in students %} | {% trans 'Student' %} {{ student }} | {% endfor %}
|---|---|
| {{ points }} | {% for preference in preference_list %}{{ preference }} | {% endfor %}
{% trans 'Note' %}: {% blocktrans %} You do not have to memorize this table. We will show you this table again in each round before you make your decision. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'School priorities' %}. {% blocktrans %} Each school ranks each of the five student types in a different way. You can think of each school's ranking (priority list) as being based on how far each of the students live from the school. The priority lists for each of the five schools are outlined in the following table. {% endblocktrans %}
| {% for school in schools %} | {% trans 'School' %} {{ school }} | {% endfor %}
|---|---|
| {{ ordinal }} {% trans 'priority' %} | {% for priority in priority_list %}{% trans 'Student' %} {{ priority }} | {% endfor %}
{% trans 'Temporary and final admissions' %}. {% blocktrans %} In this procedure, we distinguish between temporary and final admissions. As illustrated below and in the example (see next tab), in some parts of the procedure the admission of a student is temporary. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} In case of a temporary admission, the following three cases can occur: {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} 1) The temporary admission of a student at a school becomes final at the end of the procedure. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} 2) The temporary admission of a student at a school differs from her final admission and does not prevent any other student from being admitted there. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} 3) The temporary admission of a student at a school differs from her final admission and prevents other students from being admitted there. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} We refer to the student in case 3) as a blocking student. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} Depending on the preference list you and others submit, you might turn out to be a blocking student at one or more schools. {% endblocktrans %}
{% endif %} {% if treatment == 2 %}{% trans 'Consent' %}. {% blocktrans %} In each round, we will ask you to decide whether you consent to waiving your priority at a school in the event that you are identified as a blocking student there. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} If you consent, the respective school(s) will be removed from your preference list without changing the relative ranking of the remaining schools on the list. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Note' %}: {% blocktrans %} Consenting to waiving your priorities will never change your final admission but may improve other students' final admissions. We illustrate that in the example (see next tab). {% endblocktrans %}
{% endif %} {% if treatment == 3 %}{% trans 'Objection' %}. {% blocktrans %} In each round, we will ask you to decide whether you object to waiving your priority at a school in the event that you are identified as a blocking student there. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} If you do not object, the respective school(s) will be automatically removed from your preference list without changing the relative ranking of the remaining schools on the list. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Note' %}: {% blocktrans %} Not objecting to waiving your priorities will never change your final admission but may improve other students' final admissions. We illustrate that in the example (see next tab). {% endblocktrans %}
{% endif %} {% if treatment == 4 %}{% trans 'Automatic waiver' %}. {% blocktrans %} The computer will automatically waive your priority at a school in the event that you are identified as a blocking student there. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} Through the automatic waiver, the respective school(s) will be removed from your preference list without changing the relative ranking of the remaining schools on the list. {% endblocktrans %}
{% trans 'Note' %}: {% blocktrans %} The automatic waiver of your priorities will never change your final admission but may improve other students' final admissions. We illustrate that in the example (see next tab). {% endblocktrans %}
{% endif %}{% trans 'Admissions procedure' %}. {% blocktrans %} After all participants have submitted their preference lists, the computer will assign each student in each group to a school. At the end of each round, each student will be informed about everybody's assignment. Note that your assignment in each round is not affected by your assignments in the previous rounds. {% endblocktrans %}
{% blocktrans %} The assignment is generated according to the following procedure: {% endblocktrans %}
{% if treatment == 2 or treatment == 3 or treatment == 4 %}
