最近关于情感的研究使传统的关于晚年情感减少的观点变得模棱两可。本研究关注的是年龄在20 - 83岁之间的83岁老人的情绪表现。使用附带记忆范式，学生阅读包含等量情感信息和中性信息的叙述。显著性是通过在1小时的实验结束时回忆起的情绪短语和中性短语的比例来衡量的。与情绪减少的模型相反，结果表明情绪的相对显著性随着年龄和队列线性增加。结果在成人发展的认知理论和社会情感选择理论的框架内进行了讨论。
Recent research on emotion has rendered equivocal traditional views of diminished emotionality in late life. This study focused on the salience of emotion in 83 Ss age 20 to 83 years. Using an incidental memory paradigm, Ss read a narrative containing equivalent amounts of emotional and neutral information. Salience was measured by the proportion of emotional versus neutral phrases recalled at the end of a 1-hr experimental session. Contrary to models of diminished emotionality, results suggest that the relative salience of emotion increases linearly with age and cohort. Results are discussed within the framework of cognitive theories of adult development and socioemotional selectivity theory.
