Exploring Sender Constraints in Two-Phase Bayesian Persuasion Trials

Too Long; Didn't Read
This section details a two-phase Bayesian persuasion model where only phase I is sender-designed, while phase II experiments are fixed. The sender’s strategy hinges on selecting a phase-I probability pair to influence the receiver's action indirectly.

2.1 Model of Binary-Outcome Experiments in Two-Phase Trials
We end this section by emphasizing that this model is the only non-trivial two-phase trial configuration when determined and designed experiments coexist. In other configurations such that some of the phase-II experiments can be designed by sender, the model can be reduced to a corresponding single-phase trial in the sense that the single-phase trial will yield the same payoffs for both sender and receiver when they play optimally. (Note that the reduced model may have a different prior if the experiment in phase-I is determined).
