H1: Participants will gather less evidence (draw fewer beads) in the social condition than in the asocial condition ("JTC in a relative sense"). The study showed that the draws to decision in the social condition were significantly lower than the asocial condition (figure 3a), therefore, social information amplified JTC in a relative sense.

H2: Participants will be more likely to jump to conclusions (making objectively premature decisions) in the social condition than in the asocial condition (“JTC in an absolute sense”). Results showed that participants were significantly more likely to jump to conclusions in the social condition relative to the asocial control (figure 3b). Thus, the social context amplified the JTC bias.

H3: Participants in the social condition will make their decisions about the majority color of the urn at a point of lower objective certainty than will participants in the asocial condition. Results showed that participants in the social condition decided at a significantly lower objective certainty.

H4: Participants will be more likely to form inaccurate beliefs about the state of the world in the social condition, relative to the asocial control. Results showed that participants in the social condition were significantly less accurate.
