Emotionality:

"When we describe someone as emotional we refer, among other things, to the great sensitivity of the person: emotional reactions are easily invoked in the person. Highly emotional people perceive the events of their daily lives as being more significant than do those with less emotional sensitivity. The world of highly emotional people is a place where many events assume great significance. These people do not go out seeking emotionally charged situations, but react more strongly to everyday situations that are perceived by them as more significant."
