Online retailing and digital marketing are steadily growing in popularity (Ares et al., 2023; Singh and Söderlund, 2020). However, most everyday consumer decisions still take place beyond the computer screen, far away from university labs or crowdsourced online platforms. Despite this reality, field studies – designed to capture actual purchase or choice behavior – are surprisingly scarce in psychology, marketing and consumer research (Li et al., 2015; Liberali et al., 2013; Robitaille et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2016). In contrast, ample academic work in these disciplines use self-reported measures as the principal outcome, mainly based on university students or paid online panel members (Baumeister et al., 2007; Doliński, 2018; Gneezy, 2017; Otterbring et al., 2020), with the data commonly collected through the “research by convenience” approach (Pham, 2013).

Abstract
Online retailing and digital marketing are steadily growing in popularity (Ares et al., 2023; Singh and Söderlund, 2020). However, most everyday consumer decisions still take place beyond the computer screen, far away from university labs or crowdsourced online platforms. Despite this reality, field studies – designed to capture actual purchase or choice behavior – are surprisingly scarce in psychology, marketing and consumer research (Li et al., 2015; Liberali et al., 2013; Robitaille et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2016). In contrast, ample academic work in these disciplines use self-reported measures as the principal outcome, mainly based on university students or paid online panel members (Baumeister et al., 2007; Doliński, 2018; Gneezy, 2017; Otterbring et al., 2020), with the data commonly collected through the “research by convenience” approach (Pham, 2013).File | Dimensione | Formato | |
