Research conducted by experts at Arizona State University in Tempe and the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque is concluded that the man's mind about the date may affect her decision to shop or give something to someone else.
To prove this theory, a team led Vladas Griskevicius and Josh Tybur, experiment by inviting the students to the lab. The students divided into small groups and given random tasks in two conditions namely to "date" and "non date".
Students who are conditioned "date" shown three photographs of the opposite sex through a computer screen. They must choose one of the most popular figure, and given time to write a story about an ideal first date with a woman of his choice.
Meanwhile, non-dating groups were instructed to look at photographs of the atmosphere of the street. They were also given time to write about the weather conditions are ideal for a walk and look around the building shown.
Then, all participants were asked to imagine that they get a windfall like getting a lottery worth thousands of dollars. Pasrtisipan also required to choose how much to spend money to buy luxury items like a new clock, holiday around Europe or a new car, and how much to put in savings.
The result was really dramatic. Men are conditioned "dating" implies that they are willing to spend more money than men who are conditioned non-dating.
