obfuscatoR

Chorus et al. 2019 put forward the hypothesis that sometimes when people make choices they wish to hide their true motivation from a potential onlooker. The obfuscatoR package allows researchers to easily create experimental designs to test the obfuscation hypothesis, i.e. when properly incentivized are people able to obfuscate?
