The total time required, including reading instructions and

In today's experiment the conversion rate for the performance
payment will be specified at the end of the experiment. The
resulting figure will be rounded up to the nearest half dollar.
If the experiment terminates early (for example, due to software
problems) then all participants will be marked on the basis of their
experimental dollar balance at the time of termination if this is
determinable. If this cannot be determined, then an
alternative assignment will be provided.
You are free to leave the experiment
at any time. However if you leave before the end of the
experiment you will only receive $5.
