Experimental Stimuli for a Study on Greenwashing and Community Notes

Supplementary material from a 2026 study on algorithmic truthfulness and greenwashing claims. This 261.5 KB PDF contains representative examples of the experimental stimuli used in a 2×2 factorial design. The stimuli were created by Aitor Gil García to examine trust in claims from aspirational fashion and sustainable luxury brands.

Use Cases

• Replicate the experimental design of the associated study based on the described factorial conditions.
• Analyze the structure of authentic versus greenwashing claims as presented in the stimuli.
• Study the framing and presentation of Community Notes as an intervention on brand claims.

Strengths

• Stimuli are explicitly designed for a 2×2 factorial experiment, allowing for controlled comparisons.
• The material is directly associated with a peer-reviewed research article, providing context.
• Released under a permissive CC-BY-4.0 license for reuse and adaptation.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small (261.5 KB), containing only representative examples, not the full set of stimuli.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for quantitative analysis.
