Trivia Games, testosterone and aggression


New Scientist published a study that shows that playing a significant impact on aggression are not. The players really like and compete - mainly from strangers.

Players (not previously familiar with) are divided into threes, whose members were practicing together in Unreal Tournament 2004, and to know better. Then these other groups to exchange lead. A week later, organized matches where they fought against each other members of the same team.

found that testosterone levels in members of the victorious group, especially in people who have contributed most to win, is significantly elevated. However, when members of the group fought among themselves, the level of testosterone a person who overcame his colleagues, was lower than that of losers.

Conclusions suggest themselves - we prefer to compete with foreigners, the brain treats such competition much more seriously and produced a greater amount of hormones. Hmm, you will need to przystopować with matches in Halo 3 ..
