Lab Equipment & Set up
The study will be conducted in the Applied Social Cognition Laboratory (ASCL) at the University of North Dakota (Andre Kehn) and the Psychology and Law Lab at the University of Wyoming (Narina Nunez). The procedure, MediaLab Files and protocol will be identical between the 2 lab locations. Participants will be seated in individual cubicles without access to one another. We will never run more than 4 participants at one time. Each participant will view the video on an individual computer screen. Participants will wear head phones to hear the sound clearly and not hear other participants. Participants will not see each other during the study and will not be aware of what other participants in the laboratory are doing.
For the video, lineup presentation and questionnaires (except the crossword puzzle) participants will complete all taks on the computer using MediaLab presentation software.
