2.2.3. Procedure
After providing their consent, the participants were randomised to one of seven conditions (generic, biological simple, biological complex, relationship simple, relationship complex, stress simple, or stress complex) using Qualtrics’ randomisation feature of random subsets. One of the seven CBT descriptions was randomly displayed to each participant. The participants were subsequently asked to complete the Depression/CBT Beliefs scale. At the end of the survey, they answered questions about their demographic information and were subsequently thanked, debriefed, and compensated USD 2.00 for their participation, which is commensurate with compensation in other crowdsourcing experiments [
