Randomization restrictionsobserved in the data (not documented by the source): never observed: reason 'Escape from war' with 'Christian from the USA' or 'Muslim from India'; 'Labour migration' with 'Is not able to work due to chronic illness'. Shares unequal: Muslim from Syria and Christian from Syria ~12% each vs ~25% for the other three religion-country levels; Escape from war ~17% of profiles

Profile positionrecorded in the deposit

Because the attribute levels were not randomized independently, an estimator has to account for the restriction; a plain difference in means across levels can mislead.
