Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:This study has a number of limitations: Firstly, DCE’s represent hypothetical situations that may not reflect how individuals make choices in real life, findings from this study were however supported – for example with regard to gender - by evidence from cross-sectional surveys, indicating that these findings may represent revealed preferences (1, 8, 9). We did not include mask wearing as an attribute in the DCE (there was limited data regarding the benefits of mask wearing during the study design period), however survey data from other settings show that adherence to mask wearing is well aligned with adherence to other social distancing measures (10); recruitment of study participants through social media tools such as Facebook and Instagram can result in predominantly affluent female study participants whose preferences may not be representative of inference populations (13), to account for this we applied population inverse probability sampling weights, to ensure that preferences reflected the demographic structure of the Missouri. And, given that this choice experiment was conducted early during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is possible that preferences and tolerance for service closures may have changed over time. Preferences for social distancing measures may not translate directly into adherence behavior, the preference phenotypes identified in this study however reveal that although the majority support non-essential business closures, a proportion of the Missouri popula...
