Primary Outcomes (end points)
For the policy proposals:
We elicit participants’ support for ten policy proposals using a 7-point scale, from “-3: Strongly oppose” to “+3: Strongly support.” We plan to analyze the following outcome variables:
1. Support_ip: Continuous measure of support by individual i for policy p (at the individual x policy level), ranging from -3 to +3.
2. BinSupport_ip: Binary measure of support by individual i for policy p (at the individual x policy level). The binary measure takes a value 1 if individual i displayed positive support for policy p (i.e., if support_ip >0), and zero otherwise.
3. Average support across all policies at the individual level
4. Share of policies supported at the individual level (share of policies for which BinSupport_ip=1)
For the vignette experiment:
We elicit participants’ support for tagging using a 7-point scale, from “-3: Strongly oppose” to “+3: Strongly support.” We plan to analyze the following outcome variables:
1. Continuous measure of support for tagging ranging from -3 to +3
2. Binary measure of support for tagging that takes a value of 1 if support for tagging in the vignette experiment is greater than 0 and 0 otherwise
