AP-GfK poll: Breaches not changing people’s habits - Business - The Boston Globe

Perhaps a decision fatigue case study

"In the survey, nearly half of respondents said they are extremely concerned about their personal data when shopping in stores since the breach. Sixty-one percent said they have deep worries when spending online, while 62 percent are very concerned when they buy on their mobile phones.
But just 37 percent have tried to use cash for purchases rather than pay with plastic in response to data thefts such as the one at Target, while only 41 percent have checked their credit reports. And even fewer have changed their online passwords at retailers’ websites, requested new credit or debit card numbers, or signed up for a credit-monitoring service."
