Replication Data for "When Bad News is Good News: Information Acquisition in Times of Economic Crisis"

The replication material contains two datasets: the appended Eurobarometers used to analyze levels of economic information (Eurobarom_2009_2015_imputed.dta) and the appended 4 modules of the CSES to analyze levels of political knowledge (appended1to4_recode.dta). Two do-files replicate our analyses in the main text and the appendix: for the Eurobarometer data, the file is Eurobarom_analyses.do; for the CSES data, the file is CSES_analyses.do.
