* Data Collection * 
We conducted the research at NEMO Science Museum in Amsterdam for 14 days in a row during the summer of 2020. At the museum, we recruited participants by pointing out the opportunity to participate via screens at the entrance of the museum, as well as by asking visitors who walked by the research space to participate. We mentioned that the research was about professions, without disclosing what we measured and for which professions. Participants (and their families) could ask questions about the purpose of the study after finishing the study. For all participants under the age of 16, a guardian needed to sign an informed consent form. Guardians were asked to wait in another room.
