The limits of a limited future time perspective in explaining age differences in emotional functioning.
Psychology and Aging, 31(6), 583–593.
author keywords: future time perspective; emotional functioning; socioemotional selectivity theory; affect; empathy
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Aging / psychology; Attitude; Emotions / physiology; Empathy / physiology; Female; Forecasting; Health Status; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Predictive Value of Tests; Time Perception / physiology; Young Adult
TL;DR:
Age and a limited FTP had opposite effects in predicting subjective well-being, affect, positive emotions, empathy, and attitudes toward emotions, and the findings question the usage of FTP as an explanatory variable for observed age differences in emotional functioning.

Change in Coping and Defense Mechanisms Across Adulthood: Longitudinal Findings in a European American Sample
DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY, 50(2), 634–648.
author keywords: coping and defense mechanisms; age-related change; developmental covariates; adult development and aging

It is suggested that most individuals showed development in the direction of more adaptive and less maladaptive coping and defense strategies from adolescence until late middle age or early old age, however, in late old age this development was reversed, presenting potential challenges to the adaptive capacity of older adults.

MeSH headings : Adaptation, Psychological; Adult; Affect; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Emotions; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Time Factors; Young Adult

author keywords: Subjective nearness to death; Future time perspective; Berlin aging study; Mortality

TL;DR:
Both age groups rated positive pictures as less arousing, resulting in a stronger linear association between valence and arousal, than has been found in previous studies.

Contributors: D. Gruhn * & J. Smith*
MeSH headings : Adult; Affect; Age Factors; Aged; Attitude; Female; Germany; Humans; Linguistics; Male; Middle Aged; Speech Perception; Vocabulary
TL;DR:
Comparisons of young and older adults’ evaluations revealed similarities but also significant mean-level differences for a large number of adjectives, especially on the valence dimension, which highlights the importance of age in the perception of emotional words.

Empathy Across the Adult Lifespan: Longitudinal and Experience-Sampling Findings
EMOTION, 8(6), 753–765.
Contributors: D. Gruhn, K. Rebucal, M. Diehl, M. Lumley & G. Labouvie Vief
author keywords: empathy; age differences; cohort effect; experience sampling
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Age Factors; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Child; Cohort Studies; Empathy; Humans; Middle Aged; Quality of Life; Young Adult
TL;DR:
Self-reported empathy was meaningfully associated with adults' actual social interactions, and the combined pattern suggests that the cross-sectional age-differences reflect a cohort rather than an age effect, with older cohorts reporting lower levels of empathy than younger ones.

TL;DR:
The evidence suggests that when older people are exposed to stimuli featuring themes that are relevant to their age group, they show greater subjective and physiological reactions than would be expected on the basis of past research.

No aging bias favoring memory for positive material: Evidence from a heterogeneity-homogeneity list paradigm using emotionally toned words.
Psychology and Aging, 20(4), 579–588.
Contributors: D. Gruhn, J. Smith & P. Baltes
author keywords: age group differences; emotional memory; free recall; positivity effect; valence
MeSH headings : Adolescent; Adult; Affect; Aged; Aging / physiology; Female; Humans; Male; Memory; Mental Recall; Vocabulary
