To eat or not to eat
Americans have a reputation for good reason pragmatists. Indeed, the way financial incentives can solve almost all issues. Well, if we add to this easy manipulation consciousness ...
For example, obesity. What country and the nation there are associations, will not resemble. Online jiving too tired. And, it seems, some calling for a healthy lifestyle and the horror stories about the consequences of overeating has to deal fails. The American Dream will be in the near future be associated with the solid fat layer. What a bonus.
Decided to test, and how you can solve this problem by using financial leverage. Dr. Stephen Driver from the Mayo Clinic in Rochester scored a hundred volunteers who suffer from excess weight. They were divided into four groups: two with financial incentives and two free cash bonuses.
And stimulation was something purely symbolic - twenty-dollar prize when the result is the same and twenty fine in the case of a set of extra kilos. And worked! Still much more likely to lose weight people when at the end of their expected this symbolic prize.
Some employers from giving physicians have already started to implement the financial stimulator of normal weight. And if smart enough to enter this point in the summary, then, I think, soon America may be the most taut nation. Well they are practical.
