 z-Tree unleashed: A novel client-integrating architecture for conducting z-Tree experiments over the InternetMatthias L. Duch, Max R. P. Grossmann and Thomas Lauer Journal of Behavioral and Experimental Finance, 2020, vol. 28, issue C Abstract: We present z-Treeunleashed, a novel approach and set of scripts to aid the implementation of computerized behavioral experiments outside the laboratory. z-Treeunleashed enables subjects to join the experiment using a web portal that requires no software apart from a web browser. Experimenters are likewise enabled to administer their experiments from anywhere in the world. Except for z-Tree itself, z-Treeunleashed is entirely based on free and open-source software. In this paper we give a high-level overview of z-Treeunleashed’s features and benefits and its design. We also show how to set up the server and demonstrate the steps required for conducting an entire experiment. We subsequently explain how to leverage the security and routing features of a virtual private network with z-Treeunleashed, enabling servers to securely run behind routers.
