A researcher constructs an experimental game to evaluate decision making. In this game, participants can select either a red, white, or blue card on each of two draws.

The likelihood on a given draw of selecting a red card is p = .40, selecting a white card is p = .30, and selecting a blue card is p = .30. If a participant draws the same colored card on consecutive draws and the likelihood of selecting those cards on consecutive draws is p = .16, then what type of sampling strategy was used?

a. Sampling with replacement.

b. Sampling without replacement.

c. It is not possible to know based on the information provided.
