Instructions for Reproducing Analyses

Data from the main study is stored on the project's OSF repository. To fully reproduce the analyses performed in the qmd files in the final_analysis folder, follow these steps:

Download the entire RProject from this repository (in browser window, you can do so by clicking code -> Download ZIP, then unzipping the file with the software of your choice)
In the main mb4-analysis folder, create two folders: main_data and intermediates.
Download clean_data.csv, cb_orders.csv, looking_time_reliability_data.csv, and contributing_lab_list.csv from the OSF repository; place all four files in the main_data folder.
Run the codes in the final_analysis folder in the following order: MB4_part1_data_clean.qmd -> MB4_part2_Bayesian_analysis.qmd -> MB4_part3_Frequentist_analysis.qmd
