A single child-friendly probability-learning (two-option bandit) experiment with N = 483 participants across four age bands (3-4, 6-7, 9-11 years, adults) making 100 binary choices (5 blocks of 20 trials) between two probabilistically rewarded options. Each participant was assigned to one of three between-subjects statistical environments (static_high, static_random, ecologically-plausible dynamic). Trial-level rows record the chosen option, whether a reward was delivered, the scheduled/target (correct) location, and post-choice numeric estimates of each option's reward rate. The study asks when adaptive (exploitative vs exploratory) repeated-choice behavior emerges in development, and hierarchical RL + perseveration models (Stan) provide converging evidence for perseveration in 3-4-year-olds and diversification from age 6 onward.

Transcript
You are helping find zoo animals that have escaped and are hiding behind two houses. The experimenter shows you 50 escaped animals on a sheet and explains that you should find as many as possible by guessing which house an animal is hiding behind. There are two identical houses, a left house and a right house. On each trial, press B to choose the left house or press A to choose the right house. After each choice the houses turn transparent so you can see exactly where animals are hiding, and a checkmark or a cross shows whether your choice was correct. Every correct choice fills one tenth of a blue circle in the corner; each full circle earns you a token. Block 1 begins. You tap B (the left house). You find an animal (checkmark) - an animal is behind the left house; no animal behind the right house. You tap A (the right house).

You are helping find zoo animals that have escaped and are hiding behind two houses. The experimenter shows you 50 escaped animals on a sheet and explains that you should find as many as possible by guessing which house an animal is hiding behind. There are two identical houses, a left house and a right house. On each trial, press B to choose the left house or press A to choose the right house. After each choice the houses turn transparent so you can see exactly where animals are hiding, and a checkmark or a cross shows whether your choice was correct. Every correct choice fills one tenth of a blue circle in the corner; each full circle earns you a token. Block 1 begins. You tap B (the left house).

You are helping find zoo animals that have escaped and are hiding behind two houses. The experimenter shows you 50 escaped animals on a sheet and explains that you should find as many as possible by guessing which house an animal is hiding behind. There are two identical houses, a left house and a right house. On each trial, press B to choose the left house or press A to choose the right house. After each choice the houses turn transparent so you can see exactly where animals are hiding, and a checkmark or a cross shows whether your choice was correct. Every correct choice fills one tenth of a blue circle in the corner; each full circle earns you a token. Block 1 begins. You tap A (the right house).

You are helping find zoo animals that have escaped and are hiding behind two houses. The experimenter shows you 50 escaped animals on a sheet and explains that you should find as many as possible by guessing which house an animal is hiding behind. There are two identical houses, a left house and a right house. On each trial, press A to choose the left house or press B to choose the right house. After each choice the houses turn transparent so you can see exactly where animals are hiding, and a checkmark or a cross shows whether your choice was correct. Every correct choice fills one tenth of a blue circle in the corner; each full circle earns you a token. Block 1 begins. You tap A (the left house).

You are helping find zoo animals that have escaped and are hiding behind two houses. The experimenter shows you 50 escaped animals on a sheet and explains that you should find as many as possible by guessing which house an animal is hiding behind. There are two identical houses, a left house and a right house. On each trial, press B to choose the left house or press A to choose the right house. After each choice the houses turn transparent so you can see exactly where animals are hiding, and a checkmark or a cross shows whether your choice was correct. Every correct choice fills one tenth of a blue circle in the corner; each full circle earns you a token. Block 1 begins. You tap A (the right house).
