To ensure you understand the task that will follow, please read the example below and answer the questions.

NOTE: You have {{ Constants.practice_max_attempts }} attempts to answer the questions correctly.

If you fail to answer the questions correctly you will be excluded from the study.

{% if player.example_attempts == Constants.practice_max_attempts %}

This is your last attempt at answering the questions correctly.

{% elif player.example_attempts > 0 %}

This is attempt {{player.example_attempts }} of {{ Constants.practice_max_attempts }}.

Example

In this page, you are facing one of the possible scenarios. You are asked to make a decision with financial consequences to your final payment and that of other participants taking part in this study.

{# if they happen to be randomly matched with you to form a group.#} Before submitting your choice, watch out for the color of the ball drawn for you (that determines the group decision associated to a payoff of £{{ Constants.higher_payoff_AP }} as opposed to £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }}) and your position in the decision queue. These vary between scenarios while all else is constant.

You are part of a group of {{ player.participant.vars.size }} players.

{% if player.participant.vars.treatment == 'a' or player.participant.vars.treatment == 'c' %} {% elif player.participant.vars.treatment == 'b' or player.participant.vars.treatment == 'd' %} {% endif %} A blue ball was drawn for you from the jar on the left, thus you are paid £{{ Constants.higher_payoff_AP }} if the group decision is BLUE and £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} if the group decision is ORANGE.
Similarly, one ball was drawn for each member of your group (at random and with replacement) and if the color of their ball matches the group decision they are paid £{{ Constants.higher_payoff_AP }}, and £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} otherwise. While you don't know what balls were randomly drawn for others, you do know that the odds of each getting a blue ball is {{ player.participant.vars.blue_balls }} out of 10.
{% if player.participant.vars.treatment == 'a' or player.participant.vars.treatment == 'b' %} {% elif player.participant.vars.treatment == 'c' or player.participant.vars.treatment == 'd' %} {% endif %} You are the 2nd player in the decision queue.
Previous player(s), if any, chose blue thus you get the chance to choose between blue and orange and influence the group decision being BLUE or ORANGE.
{# #} {# #} {# #} {# #} {# #} {#
#} {# #} {# #} {# As represented in the sketch, if you choose orange, the game ends and the group decision is ORANGE;#} {# if you choose blue, the next players, if any, will have the chance to determine the group decision being BLUE or ORANGE.
#} {# Thus, group decision BLUE is possible if you choose blue and impossible if you choose orange. BLUE only happens if all players choose blue including you.#} {#
#}

Recall that:

Thus, group decision BLUE is possible if you choose blue and impossible if you choose orange. Moreover, group decision BLUE only happens if all players choose blue including you.

{# Below are the probabilities that no, some or all other members of your group have their payoffs negatively affected if the group decision ends up being ORANGE and respective earnings.#} Below are the probabilities that no, some or all other members of your group earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} instead of £{{ Constants.higher_payoff_AP }} when the group decision ends up being ORANGE, which happens when the ball drawn for them is blue.

{% if player.participant.vars.treatment == 'a' %}

Probability that among other members of your group...
NO player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE6.4%
AT LEAST 1 player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE93.6%
HALF OR MORE players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE64.8%
ALL players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE21.6%
{% elif player.participant.vars.treatment == 'b' %}
Probability that among other members of your group...
NO player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE0.1%
AT LEAST 1 player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE99.9%
HALF OR MORE players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE97.2%
ALL players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE72.9%
{% elif player.participant.vars.treatment == 'c' %}
Probability that among other members of your group...
NO player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE0.2%
AT LEAST 1 player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE99.8%
HALF OR MORE players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE71.0%

{% elif player.participant.vars.treatment == 'd' %}
Probability that among other members of your group...
NO player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE0.0%
AT LEAST 1 player earns a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE100.0%
HALF OR MORE players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE99.7%
ALL players earn a payoff of £{{ Constants.lower_payoff_AP }} from group decision ORANGE47.8%
