      abstract = {The objective of this study was to test for the effect of  consequentiality on the probability of a respondent opting  out of voting in a stated preference survey. We find that  respondents who believe that the survey is inconsequential  are more likely to opt out than to vote yes in both  binomial-choice and multinomial-choice formats and are more  likely to vote no than to opt out in the multinomial-choice  format. We also find that respondents who are uncertain  about consequentiality are more likely to opt out than to  choose yes or no under both choice formats.},
