Explanation:
The study of behavioral Economics shows that people are more driven by the loss of fear than the hope of gain. This is known as loss aversion. In commitment contracts where penalty money is promised to a charity or an anti-charity if the goal is not achieved, those who promise their money to an anti-charity tend to achieve their goals more. The same also applies when comparing this group and those who do not have to forego anything if they do not meet their target.
This is because giving to a charity will still seem beneficial while losing the money to an anti-charity will seem like a total loss.

The amygdala is fundamental for deciphering feelings, especially threatening stimuli. Outer stimuli travel to the amygdala by means of two distinctive pathways, which supplement one another. A short, uncertain course originates from the thalamus, which gets sensory stimuli and enables us to get ready for potential threat before knowing precisely what the threat is. A more exact course originates from the medial prefrontal cortex, the zone of the mind that is associated with the final phase of dread, in which the cerebrum responds to risk and picks a plan.
