15,476 rated or chosen profiles from 2,786 respondents, in up to 3 tasks of 2 profiles varying on 4 attributes.
| Description | Pakistani citizens in the 15 largest Afghan-refugee-hosting districts (face-to-face, Gallup Pakistan, 2024; n = 2,786 who answered at least one round) chose which of two unregistered Afghan refugee profiles they would prefer to stay in Pakistan, over 3 rounds. Attributes: ethnicity, gender, household-head occupation, years in Pakistan. |

| Randomization restrictions | yes (stated by the source): household-head occupation includes the respondent's own household head's occupation piped in (a respondent-dependent level); level weights: ethnicity Pashtun 50%, Tajik 25%, Uzbek 25%; gender 50/50 |

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:
| choice | Now I will show you two profiles of Afghan refugees. These two Afghan refugees are not registered in Pakistan, but they both want to stay here. After I tell you some details about each of these two Afghan refugees, I want you to pick which one you would prefer to stay in Pakistan. (translated) [choice, forced] |
