The design of the studies is garbage: imaginary intention to make an imaginary purchase of an imaginary headphones from imaginary companies. Participants paid and recruited through mechanical turk.
> Participants (N = 383; 52% female; age: M = 43.28 years, SD = 14.93) were recruited through an Amazon Mechanical Turk Prime Panel and paid a flat rate for compensation. This study used a 2 (employee type: retail employee vs. CEO) × 2 (salary: paid fully vs. cut fully) between-subject design. Participants were asked to imagine that they were looking to buy a new set of headphones from a well-known retailer.
I bet that many people once they were done with the survey and paid went to Amazon and bought something, and did not care once about the pay of workers or conditions, when making an actual purchase.
