A data frame with 106 rows and 2 variables:

food: Three levels - comfort, control, or organic
judge: Moral Judgement rating

Do organic foods make us morally smug? To what extent? To find out, Eskine (2013) asked participants to rate images of organic food, neutral (control) food, or comfort food. Next, all participants completed a moral judgements scale in which they read different moral scenarios and judged how wrong they were (scale of 1-7).

The original study examining this phenomenon was Eskine (2013). The primary research questions were: (i) Does judgmentalness increase after organic food exposure compared to control food, and (ii) Does judgmentalness decrease after comfort food exposure compared to control food?

Moery & Calin-Jageman (under review) conducted a close replication of the study. The same research questions were asked in the close replication. The data here comes from the Moery and Calin-Jagerman replication study.
