| Description | 1,432 members of the Hong Kong People Volunteer Panel (non-probability) each compared 5 pairs of highly-skilled immigration schemes varying eligibility, change of employment, nationality, language requirement, welfare entitlement, tax and quota; forced choice plus a 0-10 rating of each scheme. |

| Randomization restrictions | observed in the data (not documented by the source): nationality 'open to mainland Chinese citizens only' (只接受中國內地居民申請) never occurs with quota '40,000/year' (每年40,000人); authors model Nationality*Quota. Consequently nationality-mainland (~25%) and quota-40,000 (~25%) are less frequent than the other levels (~37%) |
| Task order | recorded in the deposit |
| Profile position | inferred from row order |
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. Task order or profile position was rebuilt from row order; analyses of position or task order should leave it out.
