Declarations

:

: The study was conducted in accordance with the ethical principles of the Declaration of Helsinki [ ]. We used data from YouGov’s online research panel, where YouGov acted as the sole data controller, ensuring full compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) [ , ]. The research team did not have access to any personally identifiable information about the participants and was therefore not subject to GDPR obligations regarding data handling. YouGov’s proprietary methodologies ensured appropriate participant selection and adherence to data security and privacy standards [ , ]. According to Danish law [ ], questionnaire-based survey studies that do not involve human biological material are exempt from ethical approval by the regional or national research ethics committees. Therefore, ethical approval was not required for this study [ ]. However, all participants provided informed consent prior to participation when joining YouGov’s online research panel and explicitly agreed to take part in the present survey.
