Faults

  • People do not seem to be fully understanding the similarity question and P(Theory) questions.
  • Persistent inability to disregard inflation.
  • Explanation two as a restatement of the prices.
  • Initial confidence is too high.
  • People give confidence estimates for backcasts from 2015-2040.
  • Failure rate on inflation check was 2/11.

Corrections

  • Improve open-ended data by asking them to make a story.
