Registered subjects at NYU are invited to participate in research studies at
CESS. The purpose of these studies is to help social scientists better understand
decision-making by observing your decisions. Information that could identify you
will remain confidential and will disclosed only with your permission or as required by law.
You may sign up to participate in specific experiments using our web calendar. The
calendar indicates the start and end time of available sessions and the show-up payment.
Some sessions may have restrictions on who is eligible to participate and/or a consent
agreement in addition to this one. If so, this will be clearly described during the
sign up process.
If you chose to participate, you will be asked to make decisions for which you will be paid.
At the beginning of the session you will receive detailed and accurate instructions describing
how payments will depend on decisions made by you and other participants. The rules and the
payments may vary across sessions and may differ between participants. Interaction takes place
over a computer network, and your identity is not revealed to other participants. Should you
chose to withdraw after listening to the instructions, or if we cannot use you in the session
for any reason, you are entitled to a show up payment and are under no further obligation to us.
If you chose to stay for the decision making portion of the session, you are entitled to the show-up
payment plus whatever money you have earned during the course of the session. Payment is made following
the session through NYU reimbursement forms, which may be taken to the Bursar for cash.
Participants do not waive any legal rights through their participation. Your participation is voluntary.
If you decide to participate, you are free to withdraw your consent and discontinue participation at any
