Experimental Design
The impact of the information interventions will be evaluated via an online survey in 9 countries (UK, Spain, US, Netherlands, Mexico, South Africa, Nigeria, Morocco and India) in late 2017.
The experiment is designed as a randomized control trial at the individual level. There will be two treatment groups and one control group with 1000 people in each. Respondents in the treatment groups will receive one of the following ‘interventions’:
(T1) - information about the level of inequality and prospect for mobility in their country
(T2) - information about their place in the national income distribution
(see the content of the information interventions in the documents section)
