Over time dwarves will have different thoughts. In the latest version of DF, the rate at which a dwarf gains certain thoughts is controlled by personality modifiers. Thoughts have effects on the dwarf's happiness.

The change in status that triggers bad thoughts about thirst, hunger, and fatigue can also slow the speed at which a dwarf works and moves.

To view a dwarf's thoughts, press k, move the cursor to the dwarf, and press enter twice. Now you will see a page describing the dwarf's feelings and thoughts, physical description, and a set of phrases describing personality traits.
