Individual probabilities of response versus potential outcomes at the end of the first stage of a SMART under response models R+ and R. Based on a simulated SMART with n = 500 individuals; a1 = 1 was chosen arbitrarily and without loss of generality. Empirical average response rate is plotted as a horizontal line in gray. Darker regions of the curve contain more observations.

(I) Response probabilities in the R+ model versus (II) Response probabilities in the R model versus Y1,i(1) with average response rate r1 = 0.4. Higher val- Y1,i(1) with average response rate r1 = 0.6. Higher values of Y1,i(1) are associated with higher response prob- ues of Y1,i(1) are associated with lower response prob- ues of Y1,i(1) are associated with lower response probabilities.
