A three-item scale assessing the extent to which respondents believe a given person is entitled to make their own spending choices freely. Originally labelled a 'deservingness index' by Olson et al. (2016), the scale asks respondents to evaluate a third party's right to spend their money as they see fit, though the authors note the items can be adapted for self-referential or relational contexts.
