Description We collected data to explore the impact of narratives on beliefs and policy opinions through a survey experiment that exposed US subjects to two media-based explanations for COVID-19. The "nature narrative" discusses the natural causes of the virus, while the "lab narrative" attributes it to human error and scientific misconduct.
