Replication dataset: the effect of compassion, biological sex, and gender identity threat on jerky choice

When it comes to food choices, high levels of trait compassion should decrease a person's likelihood to choose meat compared to a plant-based alternative [1–4]. Because meat advertising often threatens masculinity, for men, this effect is expected to be moderated by gender identity threat. The...

The data provided with this article were collected online from 1,350 participants to conduct a replication of study 1 in “The taste of compassion: Influencing meat attitudes with interhuman and interspecies moral appeals” [5].
