This dataset contains data from a preregistered survey experiment collected from 2,603 social media users in Ghana. The study examines how citizens evaluate political vigilantism, focusing on how the nature of vigilante activity and political alignment shape justification of extralegal political action. The survey includes randomized vignettes varying vigilante activity and partisan affiliation, along with measures of justification, perceived threat to democracy, political identity, and respondent demographics. The repository also includes replication code for the analyses presented in the associated study.
