# README – Experimental Material

## Overview

This folder contains the materials used to prepare and conduct the scenario-based team experiment. The materials were designed to standardize the experimental procedure across teams, sessions, roles, and assessment points.

The experiment included two meetings (T0 and T1). For each meeting, participants received role-specific instructions and additional materials. The study lead followed a standardized experimental procedure.

## Contents

### Experimental procedure SOP

The experimental procedure SOP provides a step-by-step description of how to prepare, conduct, and post-process each experimental session. It includes procedural details for participant check-in, seating, instructions, meeting setup, data handling, and post-session steps.

### Instructions for getting in tune with the care context

This file contains the introductory instruction read aloud by the study lead to help participants imagine working in a nursing care context. The instruction was used before the experimental meetings.

### Email templates

This file contains standardized email templates used for participant communication.

### Instructions T0

This folder contains the role-specific instructions and materials for the T0 meeting. The folder includes the meeting agenda, role-specific instructions for participants, the confederate instruction, and additional role-specific materials such as text suggestions, visualizations, reports, or schedules.

### Instructions T1

This folder contains the role-specific instructions and materials for the T1 meeting. The folder parallels the structure of the T0 materials but refers to the second experimental scenario after the training phase.

## Role structure

The experimental meetings included the following roles:

* Team leader (Kim)
* Employees (Bene, Noah, Finn, Lian, Marlo)
* Confederate (Alexis)
* Study lead

## File naming logic
Files in the Instructions T0 and Instructions T1 folders are named according to the assessment point and the role or material type.

* Files starting with T0_ were used for the pre-training meeting.
* Files starting with T1_ were used for the post-training meeting.
* Files containing Instructions include role-specific instructions.
* Files containing Text suggestion include standardized wording or text input for specific scenario elements.
* Files containing Visualization include visual material used in the scenario.
* Files containing Report, Schedule, or similar terms include additional role-specific materials used during the meeting.


##Notes on standardization

The materials in this folder should be interpreted together with the experimental procedure SOP. The SOP specifies when and how the individual files were used during the experimental session.
