The Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics will be running computer-based experiments this Wednesday (Nov 16) and Thursday (Nov 17) at 1:30pm. We are looking for volunteers. The experiment will run for about 1.5 hours. You will participate in a simulated market environment at computer terminals, seeking to earn as much money as possible over the course of the experiment. Your earnings during the experiment will translate to an amount of actual earnings that you get to take home with you. The better you do in the experiment, the more money you will take home. Typical earnings will be between $20 and $40, while the actual earning can be lower or higher, depending on your individual performance. You will be paid in cash after the experiment. All sessions will take place in the W.B. Young building, Room 304. See this link for the location (YNG, C6). This experiment is approved under IRB Exemption #X12-129 protocol.
Please reply to experimentuconn@gmail.com if you are interested in participating. VERY IMPORTANT: When you attempt to register for an experiment, your email must include your name and student ID, as well as the exact date and time slot you are attempting to sign up for (Session 5: Wednesday 1:30pm on Nov 16; Session 6: Thursday 1:30pm on Nov 17). Spots will be filled on a "first to reply" basis. You will receive an email either confirming your spot in the experiment OR letting you know that the session has already been filled. It is very likely that there will be subsequent calls for volunteers over the course of the next week or two, if you are unavailable to participate this time but willing to participant in the future please contact experimentuconn@gmail.com. Thank you.
