Note: ***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1. OLS regressions on willingness to receive booster among fully vaccinated, but non-boosted respondents. Base categories for each attribute are: Efficacy-50%; Protection duration-6 months; Future variants: May require a booster against future variants; Manufacturer-Pfizer; Incentive-$10. The dependent variable in these regressions is a binary variable indicating willingness to receive a hypothetical vaccine booster. Robust standard errors in parentheses.
