The chronotype refers to differences in each individual’s income compared to sleep periods and waking up 24 hours a day.
People organize their lives and activities in a 24-hour cycle, i. e. with certain hours of wakefulness, entry to work or school, leisure activities and bedtime, and may have more or less income at certain times of the day, which influence and are influenced by each person’s life cycle.
- There are times of the day when a person’s income is higher or lower.
- Which is related to their chronotype.
- So people are classified according to their biological rhythms morning.
- Intermediate and late.
- According to sleep/wake periods.
- Also called circadian.
- Cycle.
- Which present 24 hours a day.
Depending on their biological clock, people can be classified as follows:
Morning people are those who prefer to get up early and do activities that start in the morning and usually have difficulty getting up late, these people sleep earlier and have difficulty staying well focused at night, for these people to work as a team can be a nightmare as they are very stimulated by the brightness of the day.
These people make up about 10% of the world’s population
Afternoons are the most productive people at night or at dawn and prefer to stay up late and always fall asleep at dawn, doing their activities more at that time.
Their sleep/wake cycle is more irregular and it is harder to concentrate in the morning, and they have more important attention issues and suffer more emotional problems, needing to consume more caffeine throughout the day, to stay awake.
The evenings account for approximately 10% of the world’s population
Intermediaries or indifferent people are those who adapt more easily to morning and afternoon schedules, without preference for a specific schedule to study or work.
The majority of the population is intermediate, which means that most people adapt to the schedules imposed by society, more easily than the evening and morning hours.
The biological clock is maintained by the rhythm of the person and by the imposition of society, with a working hours of 8 hours to 18 hours for example, and sleep from 11 at night.
What happens when daylight saving time enters may be indifferent to people with an intermediate chronotype, but this can cause some discomfort in those who are in the morning or afternoon. but for those who are in the morning or afternoon, there can be more hours of sleep, less desire to work and exercise in the morning, lack of hunger at lunchtime and even discomfort.
