A few questions:
Will there be travel restrictions? (if someone is receiving this money, do they have to stay in the same city/country, or can they move?)
What age ranges will be included in the study? [I found the answer in the report: it's 21 to 40]
Is there a control group that won't be interviewed regularly? I'm more motivated when my boss talks to me. Requiring people to meticulously manage their time will already bring a productivity boost.
What about controlling for the end date? My contracts last for 1 year at a time. If I suddenly knew I'd have a steady income for 5 years, that would be a huge relief, and I'd change my lifestyle accordingly and settle down (e.g. be able to plan to start a family). That feeling is independent of the amount of money, it's just the stability.
My first feeling is that living with basic income will be similar to retirement. (and there's a lot more data about what retired people spend their time doing).
