When you begin each question, you will notice that a navigation menu will load. In this navigation window there are countries paired with their foundation date. Each question will either give you a country, and you have to report the foundation date, or give you a date, and you have to report the country. To do this, navigate through the menu, input your answer on the bottom of the page, and then move on to the next question. Please see the image at the bottom of this page.For example the question may ask you "What is the foundation date for Gibraltar?"You would need to navigate through Europe > Southern Europe and then find Gibraltar. Finally, input 1699 into the answer box.In addition, data in this experiment are fake, so do not try to just Google the answers. The answers also change for every question, so there is no point in memorising the answers.Thank you for your participation!
