*** Instructions on how to read the data and interpret variables

1. "raw data.xlsx" is the raw data file. Variable names and meaning of the values can be found in the last worksheet "code-book".

2. "data.mat" and "data_merge.mat" are the MATLAB data files that are used for figures, tables, and statistical analyses; the data preparations and executions can be replicated using "code.m". Two functions, defined in "NeoAdditive.m" and "SquaredDistance_NA", are used.

3. Whenever necessary, as indicated in "code.m", parametric fittings are done in STATA. "data.dta" and "data_added.dta" is the STATA data file that is used for parametric fittings; the data preparations and executions can be replicated using "code.do".



*** How sample size was determined

To have enough power in agreement with the conventions of the field.



*** All data exclusions

There are no data exclusions.



*** All manipulations

All manipulations are described in the paper.



*** All measures collected

All measures collected are included in "data.xlsx".
