"The study included 69,744 women and 1,429 men." Does this mean it's much easier to find optimistic women than men?

"The study included 69,744 women and 1,429 men."
Does this mean it's much easier to find optimistic women than men?
- blihp 7y agoProbably easier to find women still alive at that age. (Here in the U.S. at least, women tend to outlive men by ~5 years)
- adventskalender 7y agoIf women are more optimistic than men, then that alone could be sufficient to yield the results of the study (correlation).
