TLDR
This paper systematically review literature published investigating the relation between individual differences such as age, gender, personality, morningness/eveningness as well as biological variables and different measures of shift work tolerance from 1998 till 2009 to indicate that young age, male gender, low scores on morningness, high scores on flexibility andLow scores on languidity are related to higher shift workolerance.About:
