Question

Are people less happy or happier when they get older? If your answer is “happier”, then you are right, a survey found that people usually become happier after they are fifty years old. Stress(壓力) levels(等級) drop quickly after people reach their fifties.

The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred and forty thousand adults in the United States. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.

The survey found that adults between the ages of twenty-two and twenty-five have more stress than others.

Levels of happiness were the highest among the kids and those in their early seventies. The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns(情感模式) as they grow older. However, women at all ages like telling their sadness, stress and worry than men do.

Why would happiness increase(增長) with age? One reason is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and they can control their emotions better. They spend less time thinking about bad experiences.
