Experimental Design (Public)
|
Before
Experiment 1: Among 1,200 households, we randomize 33% towards the high subsidy treatment arm, 33% towards the low subsidy treatment arm, and 33% to the control group.
Experiment 2: Among 1,250 households that are connected via their neighbors at baseline, we randomize 50% towards the subsidy arm, and 50% to the control group.

After
Experiment 1: Among 1,200 households, we randomize 33% towards the high subsidy treatment arm, 33% towards the low subsidy treatment arm, and 33% to the control group.
Experiment 2: Among 1,250 households that are connected via their neighbors at baseline, we randomize 50% towards the subsidy arm, and 50% to the control group.
Experiment 3: Among 150 markets, we randomize 50% towards the subsidy arm and 50% to the control group. All baseline directly-connected households within a treated market will receive the subsidy.
