About this table

DescriptionGerman adults (online panel, 2021; n = 3,169) voted in a hypothetical referendum on 6 successive proposals for a levy on meat, whose justification (animal welfare or climate) and differentiation (uniform or by meat type / housing stage) were randomized between respondents and whose level rose across the 6 proposals; outcomes are a yes vote and a no vote (abstention possible).

Randomization restrictionsyes (stated by the source): justification and differentiation are fixed per respondent (between subjects); the levy-table rows are meat types under the climate justification and housing stages under animal welfare; levy amounts are fixed by proposal number (1-6, shown in rising order) and differentiation; revenue use always matches the justification
Task orderrecorded in the deposit
Profile positionrecorded in the deposit

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.
