2.1.2 Experimental procedures. Eight sessions were conducted at the CentERlab facility at Tilburg University, in the Netherlands, between April 2013 and 2014. In seven of the eight sessions, there were ten sequential rounds of two-period markets[11]. The number of participants ranged from eight to fourteen per session, but always with an even number. Participants were students from variety of majors, who had no prior experience with this experiment. Trade was denominated in an experimental currency called francs. Subjects were paid by bank transfer in euro after the session. The exchange rate was 2,200 francs ¼ 1 euro. The duration of sessions averaged about 2 hours and 20 minutes (including instruction and a short questionnaire). Average earnings were approximately 20 euro (about $ 26.68 at that time). The training period itself lasted about 45 minutes, including two trial market periods.Each period lasted for 180 seconds, during which subjects were free to buy and sell both types of asset. Asset A and B were traded in separate markets, which were just a mouse-click away from each other. At the end of each period, a feedback screen was shown to all participants. In the first period of each round, the feedback screen informed the subjects of which asset would be shocked in the second period, together with dividend payment for the period, their current holdings of each asset, and their cash balance. Insiders were informed about the relationship between the shocked asset and the other asset. After the second period had elapsed, subjects learned whether there were insiders in the market, the relationship between the two assets, and their earnings for the round. A subject’s earnings for a round were equal to her earnings from dividends, plus the proceeds from her sales, minus her expenditures on purchasing assets.
