| # Data dictionary |
|
|
| ## Shared identifiers and design |
|
|
| - `run_id`: synthetic stable identifier derived from condition metadata; it does |
| not encode a source path or timestamp. |
| - `game`: game identifier (`ro_public_good` or `fischer_2004`). |
| - `mechanism`: ORS mechanism (`vcm`, `sccm`, `ccm`) where applicable. |
| - `prompt_modifier`: prompt treatment, such as `none`, `remove_worked_examples`, |
| or `coalition_example`. |
| - `model_slug`, `model`, `model_label`: anonymized publication labels for the |
| served model variant. These identify models, not people. |
| - `seed`, `repetition`, `chain_id`, `generation`, `player`: experimental random |
| seed/repetition and within-trajectory indices. |
| - `treatment`: restart/continuation treatment label from the experiment. |
| - `fixed_count`, `fixed_policy`, `fixed_placement`: fixed-player condition; |
| empty values denote a baseline condition. |
|
|
| ## ORS decision-level columns |
|
|
| - `choice`: parser-normalized choice code. |
| - `contribution_1`, `threshold_1`, `contribution_2`, `threshold_2`: submitted |
| SCCM/CCM offers. The second pair is empty for VCM/SCCM as appropriate. |
| - `implemented_contribution`: contribution implemented by the mechanism. |
| - `total_contribution`, `total_contributors`, `payoff`: group total, contributor |
| count, and individual payoff. |
| - `contribution_share`, `normalized_welfare`: contribution and welfare as a |
| proportion of the maximum. |
| - `conditional_mechanism_use`, `activated_conditional_use`, |
| `uniquely_conditional_activation`, `protective_cooperation`, |
| `strategic_mechanism_use`: derived mechanism-use indicators. |
| - `previous_total_contribution`, `previous_own_contribution`, |
| `previous_others_total_contribution`: previous-period displayed outcomes. |
| - `is_late_window`: indicator for the final five periods. |
|
|
| Additional columns in the ORS file are direct, documented derived diagnostics; |
| their names are self-describing and retain the suffixes `_pct` (percentage |
| points) and `_rate` (proportions). |
|
|
| ## ORS group-period columns |
|
|
| These aggregate the five player records in a trajectory-period. The principal |
| fields are `run_id`, `model_slug`, `mechanism`, `fixed_count`, `generation`, |
| `chain_id`, `contribution_rate`, `total_contribution`, `group_welfare`, |
| `mean_payoff`, `players`, `is_late_window`, and the mechanism-use rates. A |
| `trajectory_id` identifies one synthetic independent group trajectory. |
|
|
| The upstream `cluster_id` field is intentionally not released because the |
| frozen analysis table contained an internal source-path value in that column. |
|
|
| ## Fischer decision-level columns |
|
|
| The Fischer file contains the parsed resource-extraction choice and game state, |
| including `resource_level`, `extraction`, `payoff`, `model_slug`, `prompt_modifier`, |
| `show_generation`, `seed`, `repetition`, `chain_id`, and `player` where present. |
| The exact set of optional fields varies with the archived runner version; inspect |
| the header for the release-specific schema. |
