Experimental Design60 participants who will be recruited through UGA Sona-Systems.
Consists of:
Control Group: Instructed to spend $10 of their own money at either Chipotle or Taco Bell
post-test: will be asked if their decision would have been different had it not been their own money,
Treatment Group: Instructed to spend $10 given to them by the researchers at either Chipotle or Taco Bell post- test: group will be asked if their decision would have been different had it been their money
…………………………………………………………………………………………....Independent VariableIV: Whether the participant is spending their own money or spending money given to them by the researcher.
Dependent VariableDV: Which restaurant the participant chooses to spend the money at either Chipotle or Taco Bell.
H1 The majority of participants who are spending their own money will go to Taco Bell because of price concerns, while those who are given money by the researchers will be more likely to choose Chipotle because it is perceived as more of a luxury good/high quality establishment.

Answering the Research QuestionQuestion: Are there demographic differences between the clientele of Chipotle
and Taco Bell?
❖ For this study, the answer is no.

➢ Chipotle > Taco Bell in 18-24 age bracket (If all else equal)
➢ Focus more on price, brand image, and healthiness of food
➢ Important takeaway: What NOT to focus on

Limitations & Future Directions❖ Time constraints
❖ Small, non-representative samples
❖ Future:
➢ Thorough planning of hypotheses/question
➢ larger samples with larger age range
➢ replica studies should further explore age, price, health, and brand
