“…The sample was recruited through Amazon.com's Mechanical Turk (MTurk) online subject pool where "requesters" (in our case, researchers) recruit "workers" (in our case, research participants) for the completion of "human intelligence tasks" (in our case, surveys) in exchange for wages. MTurk has become an accepted and popular recruitment tool among social scientists (e.g., Polman & Russo, 2012;Senecal, Wang, Thompson, & Kable, 2012;Skarlicki & Turner, 2014;Ulku, Dimofte, & Schmidt, 2012;West, Meserve, & Stanovich, 2012), and research suggests that scale reliability and in general psychometric properties are as good or better when scales are administered on MTurk as when they are administered via traditional methods (e.g., Behrend, Sharek, Meade, & Wiebe, 2011;Buhrmester, Kwang, & Gosling, 2011;Paolacci, Chandler, & Ipeirotis, 2010). In addition, a recent study examining the demographics of MTurk workers in the United States (Huff, 2014) demonstrated that the distribution of workers across industry is very similar to that of the distribution of the general U.S. population.…”
