Female owls are also prone to risk as men Bashny.Net

According to a new study from the University of Chicago, women with biorhythms "owls" tend to be the risk similar to men. Study author Dario Maestripieri explains that the results of the study show the relationship of sleep with important character traits and behavior. Night "owls-people" who, as a rule, I stay up late and get up late in the morning are different in many important ways from early risers. "Owls and men and women intended for short-term romantic relationships versus long term relationships "larks," said Maestripieri. "In addition, male night owls reported twice the number of sexual partners than men-larks".





Maestripieri wanted to explore why men like to take more risks than women. He was curious whether sleep some impact on these trends. The study involved 110 men and 91 women, who were taking tests saliva to determine the levels of cortisol and testosterone. Males had higher rates than women, but the owl women had levels of these hormones comparable to men's. The study, Maestripieri: suggests high cortisol levels may be one of the biological mechanisms explaining the high risk-taking in night owls.
