` ); stimulusMap.set( 'consent', html`1. Description of the research project
Welcome to our study on Decision-making with Others. We are investigating how people choose courses of action when working with others. The experiment will take less than 20 minutes, with short pauses in between. However, since this is a multi-participant study, we ask that you complete the task fully without taking additional breaks. If you have any further questions, please contact the investigator.2. Voluntary participation and anonymity
Participation in the study is voluntary. You can withdraw your consent to participate in this study at any time and without giving reasons and without suffering any disadvantages. Even if you terminate the study early, you are entitled to compensation for your time up to that point.3. Compensation
For participating in the study, you will receive the rate indicated on the Prolific.com page for this study. The fee will be paid through the Prolific platform.4. Scope of data collection and processing
We will save your responses and judgements to the questions and stimuli presented in this study. We will also collect information about your response times. We also ask for your gender, age, and thoughts about the study following completion. These data will be de-identified, so that your responses are not saved in a way that one could identify you from your responses (or which responses are yours). The results and data of this study will be published as a scientific publication. This will be done in an anonymized form, i.e. without the data being assigned to a specific person. The completely anonymized data of this study will be made available as open data in a secure, internet-based data archive (osf.io). This study thus follows the recommendations of the German Research Foundation (DFG) and the German Society for Psychology (DGPs) for quality assurance in research.5. Legal basis

` ); stimulusMap.set( 'instructions_1', html`In this experiment, you will be solving captchas.
This will involve identifying slightly distorted letters and numbers from an image.
Your task is to solve the captchas as quickly and accurately as possible.
Press SPACE to continue.
` ); stimulusMap.set( 'instructions_2', html`In this study, we will randomise the difficulty of the captchas you will solve.
You will roll a virtual die to determine the difficulty of the captchas you will see.
The higher the number you roll, the more difficult the captchas will be.
Press SPACE to continue.

` ); stimulusMap.set( 'debrief', html`Thank you for participating in our study. In this study, we seek to investigate 1) to what extent online participants suspect that their interaction partners are not real people and 2) how and when they report such suspicions.
To this end, we created the appearance of additional participants in the experiment – in reality, you performed the task alone with your 'partner's' actions being peformed by a computer.
You may have also read in the post-experiment questionnaire that your partner was either an AI agent – this was to examine whether people’s suspicions are biased by the way in which they are asked about them.
Should you have any additional questions, you may contact Dr Shaheed Azaad at sazaad@uni-muenster.de.
