Source: Authors’ own calculations based on TVSEP data from the 2013 wave and MODIS flood data for the respective year.

Note: The outcome variable for all regressions is a binary indicator turning 1 if the respondent indicates support for government redistribution. Since this question was included in the 2013 questionnaire only, results are based on a reduced sample (2,879 observations, robust standard errors). All specifications include the baseline sociodemographic (age, age squared, gender, health dynamics, marital status, educational attainment, and occupational status) and socioeconomic (relative income, income dynamics) controls, as well as province FE. Sensitivity controls comprise the full set of shock experience controls, village aggregates, flood history, as well as cultivation and network (flood experience and TSE exposure) controls. *** p < 0.01, ** p < 0.05, * p < 0.1
