Notes

Conjoint table (irw_conjoint_2). Between-subject 3x2 scenario, one per respondent: the winning party is unnamed, supported or opposed, and incomes under its government stayed the same or rose, followed by a judicial reform. Five 1-7 ratings (support, trust, reform justified, reform acceptable, vote likelihood; higher = more); no opt-out. cov_survey_weight is the authors' weight. Level text is the English original of the Russian/Ukrainian vignettes. Ukraine sample only.

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