SYNTHETIC RESEARCH PRETEST · N=200
Framing effect
Equivalent outcomes can produce different risk preferences when described as gains or losses. The classic research examined such framing-dependent choices. This study compares risky choices under gain and loss frames.
Design and results
Synthetic responses followed the predicted direction. This is a directional description, not a matched human-participant test.
| Group | n | Result |
|---|---|---|
| Gain frame | 100 | 4 |
| Loss frame | 100 | 61 |
Group B minus A: 57.
Data and review
Downloads contain synthetic responses. Keep the questionnaire version, codebook and provenance label when analysing them.
Limitations and source
These results can help test questionnaire materials, branching and analysis workflows. They do not estimate human-population effects or replace human validation.
