What it measures

This scale assesses how much a person believes a crowdfunding request is framed around an early-stage, experimental project exploring new product ideas or features. It is the exploration-oriented companion to Zhang et al.'s (2023) exploitation-framing measure, developed for the same crowdfunding studies.
