EU-TRHeaDS Conjoint Dataset

The EU-TRHeaDS Conjoint Dataset is a set of 20,920 observations that was gathered, organised and edited in the framework of the research project ‘EU Citizens’ Transnational Rights and Health-related Deservingness at the Street-level - EU-TRHeaDS’ (PI: Roberta Perna), which has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 101022244.

One of EU-TRHeaDS' aims is to investigate which criteria ‘activate’ the category of healthcare (un)deservingness in the context of intra-EU migration among the general public in two EU Member States (Belgium and Spain), and the extent to which these preferences turn into patterns of systematic penalisation towards specific EU nationality groups. It does so by carrying out a conjoint experimental study nested in an online survey run in parallel in Belgium and Spain with a representative sample of the population on the dimensions of gender, age (18 years old), level of education achieved and geographical region of residence. During the four tasks of the experiment, respondents were asked who they would prioritise to access publicly-funded healthcare out of two fictitious patients who differed in four attributes, all randomly assigned: 1) nationality; 2) migration trajectory; 3) responsibility over ill health, and 4) employment status.

As a subset of a larger survey on intra-EU mobility and access to healthcare rights, the EU-TRHeaDS Conjoint Dataset specifically includes the socio-demographic variables of the probabilistic sample in each country, the variables of the conjoint experiment and information about the time spent by respondents in completing each of the four experimental tasks.
