At each location, the experimental material provided to the students will be localized, i.e., in Spanish in Spain and in English at the USA, and the translation will be carefully checked by bilingual experimenters.[1] Independently of being the baseline or the replication, the execution plan of the twincode study consists of the steps described below. 5.1 Recruitment In this initial step, we plan to motivate the students to voluntarily participate in the study as an interesting experience in remote pair programming but without mentioning that the main goal is to study the effect of gender bias. We also remark that for the purpose of the study, they must remain anonymous to their partners, so they must neither mention nor ask any personal information. The interested students must register in the twincode platform providing some demographic data and accepting the participation conditions. Authors:

If this replication is eventually carried out, the experimental material will also be adapted to the local variant of Spanish if deemed necessary.
