Masking Details
Participants were assigned to groups using the "simple randomization method". Participants were not informed of which group they were in. Automated computer-based randomization resulted in the implementation of the experiment with the scheduling scenario and confidential allocation of participants to one of the four intervention branches. The researcher was blind to all conditions until the participants started the computer program and the intervention began. Participants were also unaware of whether the group they were assigned to was an experimental or a control condition. In addition, researchers coding and analyzing data will be blind to randomization and interventions.
