Using two national samples of adults varying in number of self-reported chronic health conditions and level of disability, the current research utilized a combination of global self-reports and daily diary methodology to examine age differences in affective well-being among people with chronic health problems. Findings indicate that among people with the same number of chronic health conditions, older adults fare well: they report higher levels of overall emotional well-being and are generally less emotionally reactive to daily stressors than are their younger counterparts. There is a point, however, at which this age-advantage falters: when people with multiple chronic health conditions encounter a daily stressor, older adults show declines in daily emotional well-being similar to those reported by younger adults.

520 $a Using two national samples of adults varying in number of self-reported chronic health conditions and level of disability, the current research utilized a combination of global self-reports and daily diary methodology to examine age differences in affective well-being among people with chronic health problems. Findings indicate that among people with the same number of chronic health conditions, older adults fare well: they report higher levels of overall emotional well-being and are generally less emotionally reactive to daily stressors than are their younger counterparts. There is a point, however, at which this age-advantage falters: when people with multiple chronic health conditions encounter a daily stressor, older adults show declines in daily emotional well-being similar to those reported by younger adults.
520 $a Among people with spinal cord injury similar results emerged: although age is protective of well-being in a global sense, it does not appear to be beneficial for emotional well-being on days when a stressful event occurs. These findings indicate that there is a limit to the age-associated benefits in well-being that have been reported across a number of other studies. Perhaps older adults regulate their emotions more effectively than younger adults because of years of practice at avoiding situations known to elicit negative emotions and because of skillful engagement in emotion regulation strategies. Yet, at some point even the best-laid strategies cannot combat the overwhelming effects that the combination of chronic and acute stressors may have on older adults' emotional well-being. Findings are interpreted using the theory of Strength and Vulnerability Integration.
