Psychological Perturbation Data on Attitudes Towards the Consumption of Meat

We present a dataset on participants ’ attitudes towards the consumption of meat (N = 30). Participants were presented with a baseline questionnaire entailing 11 statements. After a baseline measurement, we perturbed the participant’s opinion on one of the 11 items, after which the participant completed the same questionnaire. By r epeating this procedure for each of the 11 items, we measured to what extent the perturbation changed the participant’s baseline score.In addition, we asked participants to draw the influence of a specific item onto the other items in a network format. The data are suitable for various purposes, like causal inference and the malleability of attitudes. Published on 2018-08-28 17:26:27
