这份报告试图为人类在当今社会中为金钱而奋斗的动机提供进化论解释。我们认为，人们对金钱的渴望是对食物的渴望的现代衍生物。在三项研究中，我们展示了食物和金钱的激励价值之间的相互关联。在研究1中，饥饿的参与者比吃饱的参与者更不可能向慈善机构捐款。在研究2中，参与者在一个有嗅觉食物的房间里引用，已知。为了增加吃东西的欲望，在一个没有气味的房间里，参与者在一个给一些钱的游戏中提供了更少的钱。在研究3中，参与者对金钱的渴望影响了他们在随后的口味测试中吃的M&M（R）的数量，但仅限于那些不限制食物摄入量以控制体重的参与者。
This report attempts to provide an evolutionary explanation for humans' motivation to strive for money in present-day societies. We propose that people's desire for money is a modern derivate of their desire for food. In three studies, we show the reciprocal association between the incentive value of food and of money. In Study 1, hungry participants were less likely than satiated participants to donate to charity. In Study 2, participants in a room with an olfactory food cite, known. to increase the desire to eat, offered less money in a give-some game coni pared with participants in a room free of scent. In Study 3, participants' desire for money affected the amount of M&M's(R) they ate in a subsequent taste test, but only among participants who were not restricting their food intake in order to manage their weight.
