A while ago, I encountered such a finding when I read a study that gave volunteers an energy drink designed to increase mental abilities. Some volunteers were charged the retail price of the drink ($1.89); others were told, because the researcher had made a bulk purchase, they’d have to pay only $0.89. Both groups were then asked to solve as many mental puzzles as they could in thirty minutes. I expected the second group, feeling good about the price break, would have tried harder and solved more problems. Wrong, the opposite occurred.

Final round of voting in France puts the leftist New Popular Front ahead in the national assembly, but lack a decisive majority. Although, the rightist National Rally won more seats than ever before, they came in third place behind the centrists. In a bid not to split the anti-National Rally (rightist) vote, more than 200 candidates for the New Popular Front (leftist) and Ensemble (centrist) parties stood down in constituencies where three candidates won enough votes to make it to the final run-off in France’s two-round system. This manoeuvre, common in French elections, significantly reduced the National Rally's chances of securing a majority. https://www.economist.com/interactive/france-elections-2024-polls-macron-le-pen
