In order to channel participant’s thoughts on potential consequences caused by SLR we used three-minute-long videos:
- ‘treatment_SI.mp4’ is the treatment video used in Solomon Islands
- ‘treatment_BD.mp4’ is the treatment video used in Bangladesh
- ‘control_BD.mp4’ is the control video used in Bangladesh
- ‘treatment_individual_VN.mp4’ is the individual relocation treatment video used in Vietnam
- ‘treatment_community_VN.mp4’ is the community relocation treatment video used in Vietnam
- ‘control_VN.mp4’ is the control video used in Vietnam

All analysis were done in Stata version 16:
- Add-on packages are included in scripts/libraries/stata and do not need to be installed by user. The names, installation sources, and installation dates of these packages are available in scripts/libraries/stata/stata.trk.
- Save the folder ‘replication_GSUS’ to your local drive.
- Open the master script ‘run.do’ and change the global pointing to the working direction (line 20) to the location where you save the folder on your local drive
- Run the master script ‘run.do’ to replicate the analysis and generate all tables and figures reported in the paper and supplementary online materials
- Study 1 – Fast-onset hazards (Philippines): The raw experimental dataset is named ‘study1_raw.dta’
- Study 2 – Slow-onset hazards (Solomon Islands, Bangladesh, Philippines): The raw experimental datasets are named ‘study2_SI_raw.dta’, ‘study2_BD_raw.dta’, and ‘study2_VN_raw.dta’
01_clean_data.do This script processes the raw experimental data from all study sites data and prepares it for analysis. 02_analysis.do This script estimates regression models in Stata, creates figures and tables, saving them to results/figures and results/tables
