RA (Risk & Ambiguity task) | ||

- *High-level task description*: This task consists of “loss” blocks | ||
and “gains” blocks. In “loss” blocks, users are asked to choose | ||
which loss they’d prefer: a guaranteed loss of $5 (represented as | ||
-$5), or a lottery that results in loss of $0 or loss of an amount | ||
of money greater in magnitude than $5. In “gains” blocks, users are | ||
asked which gain they’d prefer: a guaranteed gain of $5, or a | ||
lottery that results in *a gain* of either $0 or some positive | ||
amount of money. The choice is displayed for 6 seconds; afterwards, | ||
(as indicated by the green dot), the user has 3.5 seconds to submit | ||
their choice. | ||
