Abstract
In this talk, Prof. Isaacowitz will first consider to what extent old age is associated with positivity in affective experience, as well as positivity in attention toward emotional information. Then, he will discuss whether direct links can be made between positivity in attention on the one hand, and positivity in experience on the other. Such work may lead the participants to a more nuanced view of possible age-related positivity.
