There are interesting research done on such topics:

In Freakonomics, we mentioned Richard Titmuss‘s landmark 1970 study on
blood donations, which found that offering money for blood actually
hurt donations.<
The quote is misleading. The article discusses recent research that has
results opposite to that of 1970, and suggests a policy overhaul.
