Experiment Characteristics

Sample size: planned number of clusters
In the first supergame, each individual is a cluster. When we use all supergames, each session is a cluster.
Sample size: planned number of observations
We plan to collect data from about 400 subjects.
Sample size (or number of clusters) by treatment arms
We plan to collect data from about 100 subjects in each of 4 arms (Treatment Group 1; Treatment Group 2; Control Group 1; Control Group 2).
Minimum detectable effect size for main outcomes (accounting for sample design and clustering)
