随着时间的推移，年轻的成年人和女性报告的积极和消极影响的平均水平更高。据推测，这类人的情绪强度更高，也就是说，他们对同样水平的情绪刺激反应更强烈。女性在反映情绪强度和循环胸腺症状表现的指标上得分较高，而在这些指标上的得分随着成年寿命的延长而下降，男性和女性都是如此。讨论了情绪强度差异的潜在原因。
Younger adults and females report greater average levels of both positive and negative affect over time. It was hypothesized that persons in these categories are higher in emotional intensity, i.e., they react more strongly to the same level of emotional stimuli. Women scored higher on measures reflecting emotional intensity and manifestation of cyclothymic symptoms, and the scores on these measures decreased through the adult life span for both males and females. Potential reasons for the differences in emotional intensity are discussed.
