Fig. 1: Schematic illustrating three ways hypotheticals may affect treatment effects.
From: Hypothetical nudges provide directional but noisy estimates of real behavior change
The violin plots illustrate made-up data, comparing field results (leftmost facet in gray) with three possible hypothetical results (remaining facets in white). The black dot shows the mean takeup rate, and the colored dots show the made-up raw data. Y-axis Behavioral Choice: 0 = Did not takeup behavior, 1 = Did takeup behavior. Figure legend: Gold = Control, Purple = Treatment.
