Attitudes towards European reforms: Conjoint Experiments on a European Fiscal Capacity and Joint Pharmaceutical Procurement

This is a conjoint experiment, carried out by IPSOS on behalf of a team based at the University of Amsterdam and at the University of Gent. The survey aims at testing attitudes towards alternative European Fiscal Capacity schemes as well as attitudes towards joint pharmaceutics procurement in face of pandemics. We model the different fiscal capacity schemes as varying across six dimensions, and the different pharmaceutical procurement schemes across three dimensions. The survey is carried out in 5 countries: IT, DE, NL, ES, FR. The countries have been selected to ensure variation in (1) welfare state models, (2) economic performance in the past 10 years, (3) long-term position vis-à-vis EU budget, (4) geographical location. The full survey will include 2000 respondents in each country.
