Figure 2. Results from Experiment 1.

(A). Reflection scores as a function of experimental condition. Participants displayed reliably higher reflection scores for described vs. experienced problems (p<.001). (B). Reflection scores on experienced trials as a function of block in the experiment. There was a trend toward a greater reverse reflection effect as the potential outcomes were learned. (C). Gambling quotient as a function of experimental condition and choice type. For gains, participants were risk seeking for experienced problems, but risk averse for described problems. In contrast, for losses, participants were risk averse in experienced problems, but risk seeking in described problems. *  =  p<.05. (D). Percentage correct on catch trials as a function of experience training block. Performance increased across blocks, but was high throughout, peaking at 97.6% on the final training block.
