By completing this questionnaire you can participate in the drawing lots of minimum 2,000 DKK (about 300$). The answers will be used in a paper, which will be prepared by a graduate student of Economics, Ulrik Dahl at Department of Economics, University of Aarhus, Denmark. The questions F-K will be used to create a picture of you, and questions 1-12 will be used to test some economic theories. All answers will be treated confidentially and anonymously, and your name and address is only used if you win one of the prizes.
Further details about the prizes are at the bottom of this page.
Thank you in anticipation for your help.
When you have finished answering the questions, please press the "SUBMIT FORM"-botton.
Please answer the following questions:
The Drawing lot for the prizes will take place on 1st of October 1998 at 12 noon CET. Each person can only enter with one questionnaire form.
The lots for the prizes will be drawn from two pools: The first pool will consist of all who have completed the questionnaire. The second pool will consist only of the people who have answered correctly on a selection of questions. You may therefore have two chances of winning.
In both pools the following prizes will be drawn:
1st prize: 500 DKK (about 75$)
2nd prize: 200 DKK
3rd-5th prize: 100 DKK
We are currently applying to funds and sponsors for money. If our efforts are fruitful, we will update the prize list, and you will automatically take part in the draw for the increased prizes.
The winners will be contacted directly and the names of the winners will be shown on the internet address: http://www.ecostud.aau.dk/homepage/902177/winners.htm from the 1st of October 1998 at 4 pm. CET
The questionnaire is a part of the final paper (thesis) that is to be written to complete a master-degree. The paper is prepared at the Department of Economics, University of Aarhus, Denmark, and it takes about 6 month of intensive work to complete it.
The subject of this paper is survey-analysis and experimental economics. Experimental economics is a kind of laboraty-research, in which one can test the economic theory by giving people different choices, in which the theory predict a unique solution. With this survey I would like to test, if these economic theories are reasonable.
The database is then sorted by two or three criteria (like third letter in the name, forth letter in the answer to question 2b, etc.). Only I am aware of these criteria.
October 1. 1998 noon the draw will take place. If you are in Denmark at this time, and you want to attend the draw, please e-mail me: . The persons who monitor the draw mention some numbers between 1 and the number of answers. We then find the winners in the database according to these numbers.
We then do the same for pool number 2 (pool number 2 is established to get serious answers).
It is possible for a person to get a prize from both pools.
All winners will get a bank-cheque, and will be informed via e-mail, if the e-mail is supported. Name, city and country will be stated at http://www.ecostud.aau.dk/homepage/902177/winners.htm fra 1. oktober kl. 16. Adress, postal code and e-mail will not be stated.
Yours sincerely
Ulrik Dahl
