For Laboratory Experiments
For each experiment, a number of registered people will receive an invitation via email. Only the invited persons have the right to take part in the experiment. In the case that you get an email which invites you to participate in a particular experiment, you have to answer positively to this email in order to be able to take part in the experiment. By doing so, you indicate your commitment to participate.
For each experiment, a small excess number of participants will be invited to avoid delays from individuals not showing up. Participants who are invited, show up on time, and cannot participate due to capacity constraints or other failures will be compensated with a show-up payment.
All payments to participants will typically be made in cash immediately upon completion of the experiment. The payment received depends upon the participant’s decisions as well as possibly the decisions of other participants in the experiment and random variables.
During an economic experiment, each participant will have to act upon the rules stated by the experimenters in the instructions.
People who give their agreement to take part in a particular economics experiment have to keep in mind that if they do not turn up or turn up late then the experiment might be cancelled because of a lack of participants. Therefore, by registering for laboratory experiments, you agree with the following statements:
1. I have been informed that if I do not turn up (or turn up late) for an experiment I have been enrolled for, I will not receive any payment and forfeit participation in any future economic experiments.
2. In the case I am unable to attend an experiment for which I have been recruited I must provide a minimum 24 hour notice to the experimenters. If I do not warn the experimenters at least 24 hours prior to the commencement of the experiment, then I will forfeit any opportunity to participate in any future economic experiments.
