[Introduction] Thank you for your interest in our study! Your participation will help us understand people’s perceptions of text-based chats with others. As our appreciation, you will be given $4 when you successfully complete the study. The study will take approximately 20 minutes. You will be shown three short scenarios of text-based chats between two parties. You will then be asked some questions about your opinions of the scenarios you have just seen. You will also be asked to provide brief demographic information. There are no right or wrong answers to these questions, and we appreciate your honest answers. At any point in the survey you can choose to go back to revisit previously shown content or change your answers. It is very important that you complete the study attentively.
