7,348 rated or chosen profiles from 7,348 respondents, in up to 1 tasks of 1 profile varying on 8 attributes.

About this table

DescriptionUS online respondents in three experiments (n = 7,348) each read one hypothetical US economic-statecraft proposal (sanctions or inducements) against a target country, with randomized target, bad behaviour, country background, economic effect, outcome of inaction, rationale and proposal author; six 0-100 ratings (support, US interests, cost, effectiveness, US strength, message).

CountryUS
Language shownen
Language of stored levelsen
Randomization restrictionsyes (stated by the source): country set and second bad behaviour differ by experiment; background text matches the behaviour; rationale text (positive/encouraging vs negative/pressuring) follows the policy (inducements vs sanctions); inaction and author-expertise texts name the target country
Task orderinferred from row order
Profile positioninferred 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.

Outcomes:

ratingI support the proposed policy [rating, 0 (unknown) to 100 (unknown)]
rating_effectiveThis policy will be effective in changing [country]'s behavior [rating, 0 (unknown) to 100 (unknown)]
rating_messageThis policy sends a strong message to the international community about US commitment to [democracy promotion / end nuclear proliferation / end state sponsorship of terrorism / end narcotics trafficking] [rating, 0 (unknown) to 100 (unknown)]
rating_too_costlyThis policy is too costly to the US [rating, 0 (unknown) to 100 (unknown)]
rating_us_interestsThis policy advances US interests [rating, 0 (unknown) to 100 (unknown)]
