四級閱讀男士在下午六點最聽話
A woman may not always gets what she wants... but she may stand more chance if she waits until 6 pm to ask for it. This is the time when a man is likely to grant a loved ones wishes, according to a poll.
Anything from taking out the rubbish to a romantic weekend away is likely to be looked on more favourably if broached at the end of the working day.
Henpecked husbands should, however, steer clear of having a row mid-afternoon. Thats because 3 pm is the best time for the fairer sex to win an argument, the poll of more than 1,000 men and women found.
And when it comes to asking for a pay rise or promotion, a woman would do best not to pounce on the boss when he or she arrives for work in the morning, but to wait until 1 pm.
This is the time that managers are likely to be most receptive to employees demands, according to the poll carried out for pharmaceuticals giant and contraceptives manufacturer Bayer Schering Pharma.
Women, however, will be glad to know that they are not the only sex affected by mood swings, with the male mindset also changing over the course of the day.
Some 86 per cent of the 1,019 men and women polled said they were aware of regular peaks and troughs in their mood. But, perhaps not surprisingly, less than half of these had even thought of capitalising on the phenomenon.
The findings suggest that by being more in touch with biorhythms, or the bodys natural rhythms, we could get what we want more often.
Mood can be affected by hormones, including those in contraceptives as well as stress, food and alcohol.
Commenting alongside Bayers poll, Evie Bentley, a psychotherapist with a special interest in biorhythms, said: Each biorhythm cycle is regulated by the brain, which controls what hormones and how much of each are produced in order to balance bodily functions.
A great deal of how a person feels physically, intellectually, and emotionally, is caused by their biorhythms.
For example, the hormones in our bodies can affect our moods. It is important to choose the right contraceptive option for you to ensure you are in tune with yourself, to complement your natural rhythms.
一個女人也許不是總能得到她想要的，但是如果她等到下午六點再提出要求，那么她成功的可能性會更大。根據(jù)一項調(diào)查，在下午六點男人很可能會滿足愛人的心愿。
如果女人在工作結(jié)束的時刻提出要求，不管是扔垃圾還是外出過個浪漫周末，都可能會被欣然接受。
然而，怕老婆的丈夫應(yīng)該避免在午后和老婆發(fā)生爭吵。因為，這項涵蓋1000多名男性和女性的調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，在下午三點女性最容易在吵架中獲勝。
如果是要求加薪或升值，女性最好不要在老板早上剛來上班時去找他/她，而應(yīng)該等到下午一點。
根據(jù)這一調(diào)查，在這一時段經(jīng)理們最樂于接受雇員的要求。該調(diào)查是制藥業(yè)巨頭、避孕藥生產(chǎn)商拜耳先靈醫(yī)藥公司委托開展的。
男性的心態(tài)也會在一天當(dāng)中有所變化，由此女性可以高興地發(fā)現(xiàn)并非只有她們才會受到情緒波動的影響。
接受調(diào)查的1019名男性和女性當(dāng)中約有86%的人說他們能意識到自己情緒規(guī)律性的起伏，但是，想過對這一現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行利用的人還不到一半，這也許并不讓人驚訝。
調(diào)查結(jié)果表明，對生物節(jié)律或人體的自然節(jié)奏多一些了解，我們就能更多地得到我們想要的東西。
情緒會受到荷爾蒙的影響，包括避孕藥中的激素以及壓力、食物和酒精引起的荷爾蒙的變化。
對研究生物節(jié)律有特殊興趣的精神治療醫(yī)師伊維 本特利在拜耳公司的調(diào)查結(jié)果旁評論道：每個生物節(jié)律周期都是由大腦來調(diào)控的，大腦對分泌的荷爾蒙的種類和數(shù)量進(jìn)行控制，以平衡身體機(jī)能。
一個人身體、智力、感情上的很多感覺都是由生物節(jié)律引起的。
例如，我們體內(nèi)的荷爾蒙會影響我們的情緒。選擇適合自己的正確的避孕方式很重要，從而保證自身的協(xié)調(diào)，與身體的自然節(jié)奏相輔相成。
