In order to participate in experiments with the EconLab, you must register in our database. Part of this registration process involves acknowledging the following rules of conduct:

• You can only register once in the database. Registering multiple accounts undermines our research. Any participant found with more than one profile will be excluded from all future studies.
• Only current students at UC Davis are eligible to participate in our experiments. For in-person experiments, please bring your student ID, so we can verify your status.
• A certain number of registered persons will receive an invitation email to each experiment. The exact number is determined by the researcher conducting that experiment. Only the invited persons may take part in that experiment.
• If you receive an invitation email, you must respond affirmatively in order to participate. Spaces in an experiment are limited, so it is important to respond early to ensure that a space will still be available. Once you respond affirmatively, you cannot later withdraw this response from the recruitment system, so please verify that you are actually able to come before you respond.
• Participants will be compensated based on the decisions they make during the experiment. The exact amount of this payment is determined by the researcher conducting that experiment, and will be described in the invitation email.
• Important: Anyone who responds affirmatively to an invitation but does not show up for the scheduled session will not receive any compensation. In addition, they will be charged with a "no-show penalty." If a person receives 2 no-show penalties, they will be permanently removed from the database, and will be ineligible for further experiments.
• During an experiment, participants must follow the directives of the researchers. If you are disruptive, the researcher reserves the right to ask you to leave immediately. In this case, you will not be paid.
