Question text:
Next, you will be asked to decide which type of lottery game you would prefer. There is no right or wrong answer. Please work as quickly as possible, we are only interested in your initial reactions. Once you have made all your choices, you could receive a payment. Ten percent of respondents will be randomly selected to win. If you are selected to receive the payment, one of the 91 questions in this section of the interview will be selected at random, and your payment will be calculated based on your answer to that question. The highest amount that you could win is £250. You must complete all 91 items in order to have a chance to win. Unfortunately if you do not continue then you will not have a chance to receive any money. If you are selected to receive the payment, the payment will be arranged at the end of the interview. If you have any questions, you can ask your interviewer now.
