Randomization Method
|
Before
Randomization of the invitation with and without incentives will be performed by a computer at NAV Statistical section at the individual level, with a witness present.
Randomization to mindset treatment happens individually and is automated in the app at the individual level.

Planned Number of Observations

Before
First field implementation:
We invite all youths registered as unemployed during the last two months at NAV Rogaland aged 18-29 years, for whom NAV has not registered any special difficulties making regular employment highly unlikely. This will give us a sample size of about 1300. The 1300 youths are randomized to receive an invitation to experiment A or B with equal probability, leading to 650 participants in each group. This population is the sample we will use to investigate effects of incentives on participation in Subproject 2. For investigating effects of incentives on selection, we can only use data from people who have consented to participate in the study. Based on previous studies, we expect 383 participants to sign up.
Second field implementation:
We will invite all youths aged 18-29 years registered at NAV in Norway except from Rogaland, for whom NAV has not registered any special difficulties. We will have a first-serve policy up until at least 1000 youths have consented to participate.

Sample size (or number of clusters) by treatment arms
|
Before
First field implementation:
The 1300 youths are randomized to receive an invitation to experiment A or B with equal probability, leading to 650 participants in each group. We expect a 35 % uptake for the youth getting the invitation with payment and a slightly lower uptake of 24 % in the sample for the youth receiving the invitation without payment, giving a sample of 227 in A and 156 in B .
Second field implementation:
We will have 500 in treatment and 500 in control.
