Research into Mood and Gender

Mood and psychological responses among men and women vary significantly. The major differences include women are prone to throw farther their feelings and emotions as compared to men. In particular, women appear to be more aggressive and have the tendency to hold more positive attitudes with greater tendency to express. This difference is mainly due to the differences of hormonal regulation which impacts mood regulation. It is the gonadal steroids that are primarily responsible for bringing mood responses that differ in men and women and are relatively higher and stronger among women. Furthermore, the epidemiologic observations have revealed how sexual dimorphisms in the brain structures relate to mood changes between men women. The estrogen actions taking place in the brain have a prominent role in regulating reproductive behaviors among female. Besides, it is also found to create profound evidence for memory, learning, neurodevelopmental, and neurodegenerative processes. The way individuals think and feel is derived in part from their cultural heritage. Individuals are intrinsically cultured to internalize and not externalize their responses. This is particularly more prominent among girls as compared to boys and therefore leads to create gender-based differences towards anger. Women are found to be more angry and resentful but are less likely to express their anger in comparison to men.  This can be explained in terms of the cultural differences or variables which form an array of systematic instructions and reinforces brain to follow that. This, hereby, generally represents the mood-related changes in relation to effects laid by the changing neural patterns which are subsequent to the hormonal changes taking place in men and women, but is also includes systematic learning of brain which is done through external factors for instance culture.

It was construed that the exercise-mood related relationships are stronger among women as compared to men, but also the gender difference has a role in improving mood occasionally. Overall, women are found to experience more positive mood as compared to men. The one major reason reported for greater mood benefits among women is that women take more stress or suffers from anxiety and depression prior to doing any work that requires efforts than men. It is apparent that women exhibit worst mood changes when they are subjected to exercise as it requires their greater tendencies and feels difficult for most of them. The biological, hormonal, and structural attributes of women make them vulnerable to get tired soon as compared to men.  Furthermore, it is reported that mood enhancement in women occurs as a motivation which is a feature not very evident among men.  Behind this has been identified biological reasons.
