Outcomes:

choiceWe ask you to choose which society you consider to be the best one for you; that is, the society in which you will be most content. It is important that you focus your answer solely on this; that is: which society is the best for you? You should not consider which society is best on the whole. [choice, forced]
ratingWe will also ask you to rate each society separately on a range from 0 (very bad) to 10 (very good) [rating, 1 (unknown) to 10 (very good)]
