Datasets, Codebooks, and original items for "The sharing mindset: Developing a scale to assess consumers' readiness to share"

This study was done to create a tool to measure how ready consumers are to share in a general sense, meaning their tendency to both use a variety of different sharing options and also to offer their own items for sharing. The goal was to create a scale that could enhance our understanding of motivations for sharing and categorize the diverse ways people share from a consumer's perspective. The datasets contain anonymous data from n = 289 participants used for Exploratory Factor Analysis (Study 2) and n = 164 participants used for Confirmatory Factor Analysis (Study 3), both with corresponding codebooks. Included is also a list of all items in German with their English translations. unknown
