Examples Sought[edit]

A few real-world examples of ‘Positivity effect’ might be helpful to the reader.

I would encourage a subject expert to please add a few examples. -- ViaBest 17:19, 3 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

non-existent source[edit]

I removed this source from the article:

LeClerc, C., & Kensinger, E. (2008). Age-related differences in emotional information processing: Neural mechanisms of the positivity effect. The Gerontologist, 48(00169013), 621-621. Retrieved from http://ezproxy.qa.proquest.com/docview/210948922?accountid=14771 . November 7, 2011

because it doesn't seem to exist. When searching the journal 'The Gerontologist', year 2008, author name Kensinger the only result is quite a different article. Searching both authors (without year) gives no results at all, and neither does a search of the title.
The two sentences that were sourced with this non-existent source were rather obscure, especially the first one : Both older and younger adults process emotional data over neural data. However,age-related valence reversal in processing emotional data is often observed. I removed it. Lova Falk talk 08:18, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification: on Opening Paragraph.[edit]

The opening wording is unclear in definition.

Also the use of the term opposite in the description does not satisfy the logical use of said term. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Actroeven (talk • contribs) 04:47, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Actroeven, and welcome to Wikipedia! Please, be bold and rephrase the opening paragraph! Lova Falk talk 15:58, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
