Approximately 40 percent of men and 53 percent of the total female participants with the status has been married or are bound in a relationship. The group included 348 men with an average age of 29 and 153 women with an average age of 27.

What we find is that marriage has a damping effect on cortisol responses to psychological stress. And this (result) is very new, "Maestripieri said.
