Matching & roles

In each round, all participants are matched in pairs. One participant within a pair has the role of player A and the other participant has the role of player B. The matching scheme is chosen to guarantee the following:

Sequence of actions

  1. In each round of the experiment, the computer will randomly roll a die with numbers between 1 and 5. This outcome of the die is called the state. Player A will observe the state, whereas player B will not.
  2. Player A moves first and has to choose between sending a message to player B about the state or not sending any message. If player A sends a message, it does not have to match the state. This is the only decision of player A.
  3. Player B will observe the message and choose an action between 1 and {{Constants.state_space}}. The decision of player B ends the round.

Earnings

In each round you can earn or lose points. The earnings of both players depend only on the state and the action of player B. The earnings do not depend on the message send by player A. The earnings of both players for all possible combinations of state and action will be provided to you in a table. The table will be shown to both of you in the decision screen.
