Description: Most models and experiments of social learning omit age structure and study strategic learning in fixed groups with everyone having equal levels of experience. Here, we introduce a "microsociety" experiment where experience structure is simulated through a simple schedule of migration and environmental change. We provide an outline of the proposed study, simulate experimental data from a mathematical learning model and develop a statistical framework to analyze strategic learning in such an experience-structured informational environment with spatial and temporal variability.
