Experimental Design (Public) The experimental design is split in two parts, one is based on a beauty contest model and one on a New Keynesian model. Each of the two parts is further split into four treatments which vary over two dimensions: (i) persistence of the exogenous shock(s) and (ii) whether the dynamics of the experimental environment are explained to participants in technical versus non-technical language. The participants are asked to provide predictions for the model's endogenous variables for 40 periods. The experiment is between-subject, so each participants takes part in only one treatment. The experimental design is split in two parts, one is based on a beauty contest model and one on a New Keynesian model, with a control group based on a simple AR(1) process. Each of the two parts is further split into four treatments which vary over two dimensions: (i) persistence of the exogenous shock(s) and (ii) whether the dynamics of the experimental environment are explained to participants in technical versus non-technical language. The participants are asked to provide predictions for the model's endogenous variables for 45 periods. The experiment is between-subject, so each participants takes part in only one treatment.
Planned Number of Observations At most 300 participants will be making choices over 40 experimental periods, making it a total of 12,000 observations per outcome variable. At most 300 participants will be making choices over 45 experimental periods, making it a total of 13,500 observations per outcome variable.
Sample size (or number of clusters) by treatment arms There are at most eight treatment groups, each consisting of six groups of at least six individuals (minimum 36 per treatment). There are at most ten treatment groups, each consisting of six groups of at least six individuals (minimum 36 per treatment).
