In the current study, you will be presented with naturalistic social networks. Each network will consist of a set of simulated people, represented by circles called "nodes." One of the nodes of the network will be red, representing you, the participant. The people in the network - including yourself - will be linked to one another via social connections, represented by lines between nodes. Your task will be to examine the structure of these connections and then make a new friend by adding a social connection between yourself and another person to the network. On each trial, you should try to make the social connection that will be improve your own position within the network, however you define it. At the end of the study, you will receive personalized feedback, including a visualization of the extent to which you relied on various types of network centrality to make your decisions about new social connections. You will also have the opportunity to explore these various forms of centrality in an interactive demo that allows you to edit the shape of a network.
