Gut microbiome composition and diversity are related to human personality traits

Johnson KV-A · Human Microbiome Journal 2020

Observational study · Open access

Key finding

Sociability and social network size correlated with gut microbiome diversity.

In plain language

Found that more socially connected people had more diverse gut communities. Small and observational, but directly relevant to the social question.

How much weight this carries

Real evidence exists, but it is early, limited, or not yet replicated widely.
