Note: Subjects in both tasks can exhibit inconsistent responses within the task, for instance, if they switch back from option B to option A. The same tendency can be observed in both tasks: The majority of subjects begin with option A and change to option B gradually and finally, the majority of subjects end up choosing option B in the last decision.
