Common use of Hypotheses Clause in Contracts

Hypotheses. The standard game has been extensively studied in the previous literature and so we ‘know’ to expect success rates of around 40-60% (e.g. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Marks 2000). Our first hypothesis is that success at providing the public good will be similar in the standard game with feedback and vector game. This is a natural assumption given that there are no strategic differences between these three games. Hypothesis 1: The success rate of providing the public good is the same in the standard, standard with feedback, and vector and vector-S treatments. Hypothesis 2: The success rate of providing the public good in a full agreement and full agreement-S treatments will be higher than that in the vector and vector-S treatments. Groups will agree to split the cost equally.
