A recent research study authored by Baris K. Yörük and published in the Journal of Economic Psychology looked at the link between tax subsidies and health. The study combined ideas that charitable giving increases health of the donor and charitable tax subsidies increase charitable giving, and the results suggest that increasing charitable tax subsidies will result in better self-reported health.
