Significance We find that the amplitude of the thermal Hall effect (THE) in strontium titanate drastically varies with atomic substitution. It is suppressed when Sr is substituted by Ca, pointing to the role of ferroelectric fluctuations in generating THE. It is amplified by removing oxygen atoms and the emergence of dilute metallicity. In the latter case, we identify a source of the THE, which is phonon drag in the context of an exceptionally large electronic Hall angle.
