Randomization restrictionsyes (stated by the source): Use of tax revenues = 'No tax revenues' if and only if the meat tax is 'No new tax' (instrument Q10 programming notes; checked in the data). Other values 'randomly displayed per attribute' in each task.

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.

Outcomes:

choiceWhich policy package do you prefer? [choice, forced]
ratingHow much do you personally support policy package A? / How much do you personally support policy package B? [rating, 1 (Strongly oppose) to 7 (Strongly support)]
