People are joyful more than three times as often as they are angry

Sometimes you come across information that is simply interesting without any resolution as to its import. From Emotions in Everyday Life by Debra Trampe, Jordi Quoidbach, and Maxime Taquet.

Despite decades of research establishing the causes and consequences of emotions in the laboratory, we know surprisingly little about emotions in everyday life. We developed a smartphone application that monitored real-time emotions of an exceptionally large (N = 11,000+) and heterogeneous participants sample. People’s everyday life seems profoundly emotional: participants experienced at least one emotion 90% of the time. The most frequent emotion was joy, followed by love and anxiety. People experienced positive emotions 2.5 times more often than negative emotions, but also experienced positive and negative emotions simultaneously relatively frequently.

Of most interest is this list of emotional states in declining order of frequency.

What conclusions would you draw?
