Intervention (Hidden)
|
Before
Each study participant provides point predictions of the causal effects of interventions measured in randomized experiments.
Participants will be randomized to one of four conditions in a 2x2 design:
Elicitation format: Participants will enter their predictions using (a) a slider scale, or (b) through numeric text entry.
Incentives: Participants will be randomly assigned to receive financial incentives based on the accuracy of their predictions.
|
After
Each study participant provides point predictions of the causal effects of interventions measured in randomized experiments. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two conditions:
Incentive group: Participants will be randomly assigned to receive financial incentives based on the accuracy of their predictions.
Control group: Participants will not receive any accuracy-based incentives.
