Research: Regular Sexual Intimacy May Impact Your Salary At Work

A new study by a researcher at the Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge reveal that people who are active in their sexual life receive a fat paycheck at work. According to the study, people who have engage in sexual activities twice or three times a week earn 4.5 percent higher salary than their counterparts with comparatively less active sexual life.

In addition to the revelation made about the monthly wages, the research concluded with the claim that healthy employees also have more sexually active lives. The study results also showed how moderately healthy employees at work with active sexual life earn 1.5 percent more money than people of the same health but with less active sexual life.

"The vast medical and psychological literature concludes that sexual activity is associated with good health and improved physical and mental capacities, psychological well-being and dietary habits," said Dr. Nick Drydakis, the lead study researcher and an economics reader at the university, reported Cambridge University.

During the study, the researchers conducted an analysis of 7,500 subjects who completed the Greek behavioural study. The study results concluded that employees who are disabled are 13 percent less sexually active than employees with no disability. In addition, employees with heart problems and disorders are 11.4 percent less sexually active.

Taking reference from the Maslow's Need Hierarchy Theory, Drydakis explained, “The theory concludes that people need to love and be loved, sexually and non-sexually, by others. In the absence of these elements, people may become susceptible to loneliness, social anxiety and depression – all factors that can affect their working life," reported News Everyday.

The study was published in the International Journal of Manpower.
