Note: Double asterisks (**) indicate significance at 5% level. Single
asterisk (*) indicates significance at 10% level. The estimation
procedure is a probit regression with standard errors adjusted for
clustering on experiments (in parentheses). Demographic variables for
gender. age, GPA, and employment status are included as control
variables but their coefficients were not reported.
