Extended Data Fig. 1: Text Explanation Clustering by Randomized Treatment Group.

Notes: This figure plots regression coefficients from OLS regressions of an indicator for cluster membership on each randomized group. Results are shown for our primary model specification, which controls for participants’ demographic and behavioral characteristics (see Supplementary Information, “Analysis: Consumer study outcomes”). Data are presented as coefficients with the horizontal bars representing 95% confidence intervals derived from robust standard errors. The topics along the y-axes are binary variables that take value 1 if a participant’s response is classified into the given topic and zero otherwise. Details about the text analyses are mentioned in Supplementary Information and sample text responses are shown in Tables A1 and A2. Figure (a) shows OLS regression results for text analysis on the open-ended reasons participants mentioned while explaining their choice of gift card (n = 4039). Figure (b) shows OLS regression results for text analysis on the open-ended reasons participants mentioned while explaining their choice of online petition to sign (n = 4039).
