🚨🚨New Paper Alert🚨🚨

We embed a within-subject experiment with two lying paradigms in the 2020 German Socio-Economic Panel.

The difference between paradigms? *Observability* 🔍

In one, we know if you lied to win more money; in the other, we do not.

📢 Our belief elicitation tool is now available for oTree and Qualtrics! 🎉

It lets you elicit parametric belief distributions with just two sliders.

So I asked ChatGPTo1 to create 3 new Cognitive Reflection Test questions - absolutely impressed with the first two! Third is meh, but overall amazing. Earlier models were quite bad a this, just rephrasing the original questions. Awesome progress.

I have added a number of posters to the behavioural economics starter pack. Please let me know if you want to be added too.

Okay, Not sure what is happening with all the new followers, but here is a cool new paper 🚨

We propose a new method to elicit full belief distributions with a simple tool using only two sliders. It works really well compared to standard methods to measure inflation beliefs.
