Historical results use their original estimator and reference. They are not a matched comparison with the current run.

Detailed replication evidence · 2026-11-03

Wrong direction on 6 of 15 effects, weak ranking (ρ = 0.41); sizes not comparable (the paper reports zero-centred utilities).

Use it to generate hypotheses to test with people; sizes need the paper's respondent data, and confirm the 6 reversed effects with people.

Supported uses

  • Nothing yet without human confirmation.

Limits to keep in view

  • Ranking close levels against each other; the order diverges from humans.
  • Decisions that hinge on the attributes whose direction flipped (listed below).
  • Effect sizes in the paper's units; only direction, rank and shape are compared.

Effects on a common scale

Human effects: zero-centred utility. Synthetic effects are multiplied by the record’s calibration factor, k = 25.1998. Calibration aligns magnitude; it does not establish agreement in unadjusted effect sizes.

Subgroups · screen, not a result

Split by child: 3 of 3 significant differences keep their direction in the simulation (44% to 100%)

screen, not a result. Each row is the with children group’s effect minus the no children group’s, human in wtp, simulated on the simulation’s own scale, so compare direction, not size. A Jev fast-small screen makes no comparison claim.
