AI Trading Trust Experiment

A psychology research game studying trust in AI advice under varying conditions.

About

This is a behavioral experiment disguised as a trading simulation. Participants:

1. Configure an AI advisor's characteristics (confidence, explanation depth, risk tolerance)
2. Receive AI-generated trading advice for fictional companies
3. Make trading decisions (follow or ignore the AI)
4. Rate their confidence in their decisions

Data Collected

• Participant ID (anonymized)
• AI tuning preferences (slider positions)
• Trading decisions and response times
• Confidence ratings
• Portfolio outcomes

For Researchers

Data is stored in SQLite (experiment_data.db). Download from the Space's Files tab.

Tables:

• participants: Session-level data
• decisions: Turn-by-turn data with all variables

Fictional World

All companies and countries are entirely fictional to prevent participants from using external knowledge.
