A new study has revealed that people who believe in guardian angels are more cautious and less inclined to take risks.
Researchers David Etkin, Jelena Ivanova, Susan MacGregor, and Alalia found that 68 percent out of those who believe in guardian angels said that this belief affects how they take risks.
While some expressed that the belief in guardian angels might make them more risky, the majority are more averse to taking risks than their non-believing counterparts.
The researchers stated that it was quite possible that people who have a tendency to view the world as being risky or potentially dangerous are more inclined to have a belief in personal guardian spirits
The study is published in the open access journal SAGE Open.
