I think this is what you want, I have tried and it works
in your php:

<?php
$data = ($_POST['data']);

foreach($data as $d){
    echo stripslashes($d);
}
?>

in your jsvascript/jquery:

<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $('a').on('click',function(){
    var dataString = {
        'id':'1',
        'name':'peter parker',
        'age':'unknown',
        'role':'spiderman'
    }
    $.ajax({
         url: "<?php echo $this->webroot;?>test_1.php",
         data: {'data':dataString}, 
         type: "POST",
         cache: false,
         success: function(response){
         alert("ok");
         $('#test').html(response);
        }
     });
   })
})
</script>

in your html

<a href="javascript:void(0);">Click Me</a>
<div id="test"></div>

If you want to decode the JSON into an associative array, you should specify that in json_decode:

Replace

$data = json_decode(stripslashes($_POST['data']));

With

$data = json_decode(stripslashes($_POST['data']), true);

See json_decode reference for more information

Also, is dataString possibly already a JSON string?
