Researchers evaluating a nutrition-label redesign observed that healthier purchases increased after labels changed. They concluded that the labels influenced choice. The observation is suggestive, but several unhealthy products were removed from shelves; until that possibility is separated from the intervention, the causal interpretation remains provisional. Which additional study would most strengthen the researchers’ causal interpretation?

  1. Show that participants consider the intervention appealing and easy to understand.
  2. Document that policymakers regard the measured outcome as important.
  3. Compare the intervention with an unrelated program used in a demographically different population.
  4. Retain the same product assortment while randomly varying label design.
  5. Repeat the same uncontrolled before-and-after comparison with a much larger collection of participant anecdotes gathered under unchanged conditions.
