Do social preferences explain health inequality aversion?

This code accompanies the paper Robson, Doran, O'Donnell and Van Ourti (2025), "Do social preferences explain health inequality aversion?". In the paper, we design and run an online experiment, with a sample of the UK adult population, to estimate health inequality aversion at the individual level. We additionally elicit social preferences over own and others' health, alongside a rich set of socio-demographics, to explain variation in health inequality aversion. Here, we provide data and code of the experiment and our analysis. The Experiment folder contains an R-Shiny app to run our experiment. The Stata folder contains experimental data and analytical code. Note that we have removed some variables from the dataset, due to data privacy.
