The purpose of this study is to examine relationships between personal attributes and behavior exhibited during a game.

 

Participants will complete questionnaires and take part in a game played with 3 other people.  The study is expected to last between 40 and 60 minutes (though some participants may take longer than expected, so a 2 hour time slot is set aside for the study).  It will be run from June 10-15.  If you are interested in participating, please email the researcher at pprobbins@mail.fhsu.edu.  Be sure to mention in the email a variety of times that you may be able to participate according to the list below (you will only be assigned one of them).
