Wiki Version:
We are students at Brigham Young University- Idaho doing a replication study of Going Green to Be Seen by Griskevicius et al. (2010), under the supervision of Dr. Brady Wiggins. We will be replicating the first study. This replication study, just like the original study, will be examining how status motives influence consumer purchases of either luxury products or environmentally “green” products. We will be testing the hypothesis that priming status motives will increase the likelihood of choosing a green product. We will be recruiting participants by email. The participants are online and on campus BYU-Idaho students, who will be receiving either course credit or extra credit for participating in this study. The email will include a link to Qualtrics, which has the consent form, a status story, neutral story, or no story, and the survey questions. Before starting on the survey, the participants will read a story. Some will be assigned a story that primes status, others will be reading a story that does not prime for status, and others will not be assigned any reading. The participants will then be presented with a choice between two products for three different product types. Both products cost exactly the same. The green products are described as being beneficial to the environment in different ways, and the luxury products have more luxurious features. **Study 1 Materials:** [Control Story Female][1] [Control Story Male][2] [Status Story][3] [Product Survey][4] [1]: https://osf.io/vn8ns/ [2]: https://osf.io/c2cz5/ [3]: https://osf.io/tyxcb/ [4]: https://osf.io/zype8/
