Women are better at co-operation than men

Recently, the British media quoted the British "Journal of the Royal Society Biology Branch," latest research, women are better at co-operation than men.

Due to original division of labor                                

Researchers designeda game for the respondents to simulates real-life conflicts. On the one hand, everyone wanted to win at work and become a winner; on the other hand, people in some cases had to compromise.

The results showed that compared with men, women’s probability of opting for cooperation to complete the task was higher, and more adept at conflicting mediation.

From the primitive society gender division of labor, females bear the child-rearing, family cohesion, support for the elderly. But these require a spirit of cooperation, if the lack of understanding others and ability to mediate the needs of the parties, the family would be difficult to maintain. Thus, during evolution, women have become easier to work with.

And, research showed that when people repeated the game, men's performance on teamwork was worse than females. In addition, in order to achieve better results, a woman was able to formulate a more successful strategy.。  

100 Swiss students involved in the game, and women showed a better spirit of cooperation. The study published on the United Kingdom "Journal of the Royal Society Biology Branch,".

Cooperation probability is twice high                            

The performance of women in the game strategy is more successful, more inclining to actively adopt the winning ways and eventually abandon those steps that will lead to failure. Computer results show that this is the highest coefficient of a successful co-operation strategy.

Generally speaking, two women’s the possibility to choose cooperate is twice than men. From a sociological point of view, men in the game is even more greedy, while women are more likely to worry about other people appear betrayal situation.

Neuro-psychologist at the University of California said men and women as early as in the belly have demonstrated their difference: from the eighth week of pregnancy, fetal brain begin to be affected by a sex hormone. Androgen weakens the link of the brain center, while estrogen is to enhance the brain’s ability to be responsible for language, emotional expression, observation of others and ability to feel. This leaves a woman with a unique talent - good at communication to express inner feelings and to quell the conflict.
