The Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics will be running computer-based experiments on Tuesday (today Feb 6) from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. We are looking for volunteers. The experiment will run for less than 2 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 $25 and $45, 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 306. This experiment is approved under IRB Exemption #X12-129 protocol.
We are also looking for volunteers for Sunday (Feb 11) (1:30pm to 3:30 pm, and 3:30pm to 5:30pm). 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, your date and session, and student ID. Spots will be filled on a "first to reply" basis. You will receive an email confirming your spot in the experiment if you are selected. Thank you!
VERY IMPORTANT: Those who already participated in the previous experiments are not eligible for this sequence of experiments.
