You will complete a number of simple tasks, together with other people,
with whom you will be connected via the internet.
First, all participants in the study will select personal "avatars" and
write short texts with regard to an issue presented.
You will spend 3 minutes with the other
people. During this time, you will be able to read and react to
each-other's brief statements. These statements will contain information
about the others lives and what interests and is important to them.
Specific instructions will follow.
Thank you!

Group Introduction
Soon after connecting, you should be able to see the other people's statments.
You can read and react to the short statement they wrote, by
clicking a "like" button, similar to the "like" button on Facebook ("favorite" on Twitter,
♥ in Tumblr and Instagram, etc.)
Even though your interaction is minimal, please try to form an impression of the
people in the group. Try to imagine them in real life - how they might look
or sound, what kind of people they are, how you would get along with them.
The task will last 3 minutes and is very important to the study, so please be attentive,
without switching pages, or doing unrelated tasks. Questions about the other people might follow.
If these instructions are clear, you can proceed to log in.
Establishing connection
Please wait while you are being connected to the other participants in your group.
All participants are now connected and you are ready to proceed.
