Interventions/Control_1
"With spin" group
Participants in the "With spin" group will read abstracts of RCTs that include spin. This study will use abstracts of RCTs used in previous study that evaluated the effect of spin presence. These abstracts will be translated into Japanese and provided to participants.
Interventions/Control_2
"Without spin" group
The "Without spin" group will read the same RCT abstracts as the "With spin" group. However, the abstracts used will be modified versions that remove the presence of spin and correctly interpret the results. These modified abstracts will be those used in previous study. The abstracts provided will also be translated into Japanese, just as they are for the "With spin" group.
