Designing Information Provision Experiments (2020, methodology): “More recently, the binarized scoring rule (BSR) by Hossain and Okui (2013) has become a popular alternative to the QSR. Compared to the QSR, in which the size of the reward depends on the accuracy of people’s estimates, the BSR offers a fixed reward in which the chance of winning the reward…”
A penny for your thoughts: a survey of methods for eliciting beliefs (2014, unknown): “Jensen and Peterson 1973; Offerman et al. 2009).
