Older Americans with a college education are significantly more likely to be emotionally well-off than are people in this age group with less education. Among those aged 65 and older, 35% scored 90 or above on the Emotional Health Index, but for those with a college degree, the percentage rose to 43% (post-graduate degree, 46%). The results are based on phone interviews conducted between January 2010 and July 2011. (Source: gallup.com, August 19, 2011)
