About this table

Description	Discrete choice experiment: 421 women who had recently delivered, in a peri-urban area of Nairobi (Kenya), chose between two hypothetical delivery health facilities (clinical quality, cleanliness, health-worker attitude, equipment and supplies, distance, cost) or neither (home delivery); 16 tasks each.

Notes

Conjoint table (irw_conjoint_2). Choice between two hypothetical delivery health facilities described by clinical quality, cleanliness, health-worker attitude, equipment and supplies, distance and cost (Ksh3000/5000/8000), or neither of them (explained to respondents as home delivery); the fixed 'none' option has no attributes and is an opt-out (chosen in 252 of 6,736 tasks). Level text is the wording of the article's Table 1; the deposit holds all 16 sets of the two-block D-efficient design for every woman (trial_block), whereas the article says 8 each, and 421 women against 411 in the article.

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