I wonder, are you allowed to sign people up to be part of a study within some parameters within some time period (e.g. “you’re signing up to participate in a study in which we may lie to you sometime in the next year”)?
Probably not. I’ve heard (from experimenters) that just getting economic experiments approved by a university institutional review board, where subjects are paid to sit in front of a computer and play a relatively simple game often with a chat feature to communicate with other subjects, can be problematic—and there’s no deception going on in these.
