Questions and instructions

Question pretext

I am now going to read you stories about people's experiences with health care services. I wanted you to think about these people's experiences as if they were your own. Once I have finished reading each story, I will ask you to rate what happened in th estory as very good, good, moderate, bad or very bad.

Use in vignettes country specific female/male first names to match sex of the respondent (with exceptions specified in the "Guide to Administration and Question by Question Specifications").

[Zana] attended her town’s annual meeting on community health needs. They agreed to focus on improving health services at schools for the next year. After
the meeting, [Zana] received a letter saying which schools would benefit, but the letter did not fully explain how the schools were selected.

Literal question

How would you rate the way health care involves [Zana] in deciding what
services it provides and where it provides them?
