Positive Emotions across the Life Span
This symposium highlights new directions in research on positive emotions across the adult life span. Contributions present studies using multiple measures of positive emotion (i.e., questionnaires, daily diaries), outcomes (i.e., biomarkers, sleep, cognition, mortality), study designs (i.e., laboratory-based, longitudinal, intervention), and age groups (i.e., young, middle-aged, and older adults).
