About this table

DescriptionPhone-survey audio vignette in Jordan, Morocco and Tunisia (n = 4,501; 2021-2022): each respondent heard one radio excerpt about a legislative committee that was all-male or gender-balanced and that supported or rejected a proposal to increase penalties for domestic violence (2 x 2, between-subject); outcomes are 1-4 ratings of the decision, trust, process fairness and public acceptance.
