Table 1. Information displayed when choosing to “Ask Someone Else” in Rounds 1 and 2 across conditions, with our predicted choice for Round 2 in bold.

Specific v Cross (Condition A) General v Cross (Condition B) Specific v General (Condition C) Cross v Random (Condition D*)
Round 1 Domain-specific score
Round 2 Domain-specific prestige Or Cross-domain prestige Domain-general prestige Or Cross-domain prestige Domain specific prestige or Domain-general prestige Cross-domain prestige Or Random cue

Specific v Cross (Condition A) compares domain-specific and cross-domain prestige; General v Cross (Condition B) compares domain-general and cross-domain prestige; Specific v General (Condition C) compares domain-specific and domain-general prestige; and Cross v Random (Condition D*) compares cross-domain prestige with a random cue entirely unconnected to success in the task. Please note Condition D was run separately after confirmatory analysis on Conditions A- C, as specified on p.7 of our Pre-registration.
