Built with Experiment
In Phase 1, participants decided how many tokens, if any, to donate to each of 36 charities. For each charity, they are given 50 tokens to allocate to that charity as they wish, knowing that their donation to one of the charities is randomly selected at the end of the study, converted into money, and paid. In Phase 2, participants observe the average donation made by other donors (either teenagers, adults or a computer) to the same charities and are simultaneously reminded how much they have previously donated themselves. They are then requested to donate to the charity a second time. After the prosocial influence task, this experiment also includes the MaRS-IB task, conducted to obtain measure of abstract reasoning.
Practicalities The experiment can be cloned and previewed by clicking on the corresponding options above.
Preview. Please note that the experiment requests a participant ID. This is to be able to manually assign participant IDs and to be able to trace them back to pen-and-paper consent. If you simply wish to sample the task this number is irrelevant and you can input 1 as your ID .
Clone. To clone the separate tasks that make up this experiment, you can first clone the experiment into an existing project, and then clone the tasks directly from the experimental tree. Cloned tasks will appear in the same project.
