People in 60s cope better with stress - Trends - Society - ibnlive: "People in their 60s are better at coping with stressful situations than their younger counterparts and empathizing with the less fortunate.
A team of researchers led by University of California, Berkeley psychologist Robert Levenson, is tracking how our emotional strategies and responses change as we age.
Their findings support the theory that emotional intelligence and cognitive skills can actually sharpen as we enter our 60s, giving older people an advantage in the workplace and in personal relationships, reports the journal Psychology and Aging."
