About this table

Description	Syrian refugee household heads in Lebanon (face-to-face, Aug-Oct 2019, n=2,998) heard 5 vignettes about conditions one year from now (safety, jobs/services in Syria, conscription, jobs/services in Lebanon, where friends and relatives are) and said whether they would be willing to return to Syria.

Notes

Conjoint table (irw_conjoint). Single-profile vignette conjoint read aloud: choice = 'Under these conditions, would you be willing to return to Syria?' (1 yes, 0 no; opt_out yes: no is the outside option). Five vignettes per respondent; level text is the article's English translation; jobs and services alternate within one Syria slot and one Lebanon slot. Attribute order randomized by respondent (not recorded). cov_survey_weight = sampling weight. 287 unanswered and 5 blank vignettes dropped.

These notes describe the source data, which the IRW reproduces as released. All notes are listed on the Data Notes page.
