Several explanatory hypotheses of this association between chronotype and well-being have been proposed, including shared genetic, biological, developmental, and psychosocial mechanisms. This paper presents a critical summary of these explanatory mechanisms and offers suggestions for their integration in an interdisciplinary biopsychosocial framework %K chronotype %K well-being %K circadian %K biopsychosocial %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6585516/
