Dwarves have an emotional response to certain circumstances. Different dwarves have differing responses to the same circumstance due to their personalities. Recent emotion/circumstance pairs are listed in the Thoughts and Preferences screen. Different thoughts can have different strengths, depending on time elapsed and dwarven personality. This thought strength is then divided by the numbers given in the table.
Note that positive thoughts have a negative number, as they reduce stress. Numbers closer to 1 or -1 have the strongest effect on stress.
