DOI: 10.7758/RSF.2022.8.1.02. This research was funded by a grant to the University of Washington from Arnold Ventures (Alexes Harris, PI). We thank the faculty and graduate student collaborators of the Multi-State Study of Monetary Sanctions for their intellectual contributions to the project. Partial support for this research came from a Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development research infrastructure grant, P2C HD042828, to the Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology at the University of Washington. This research was also supported by research funds from the Council on Research, Computing and Libraries (CORCL) at the University of California, Irvine. The authors would like to acknowledge the team of research assistants on this project: Marnie Mattei, Hayden Sugg, Nicole Carbonel, Sar Vang, and Nicole Phillips; without their tremendous work and invaluable input, this research would not have been possible.
