También hemos de considerar las teorías sobre el desarrollo de la IE a través de la edad (Mayer, Salovey, Caruso & Sitarenios, 2001) y del desarrollo diferencial de sus componentes.
I'm obvioulsy totally lacking in EI as the additions to this article I already translated 6 months ago are making me very irritable .... I cannot think of an elegant way to put this "with age" doesn't sound great nor does "as we grow older"
Any help appreciated.

with age
I hesitate to suggest this, since you say you don't like it, but I honestly think it's perfectly all right and it's what people in the field seem to say. I think the word "age" should probably be in there, since I presume they're saying there is a correlation with age (in years).
Here's Mayer himself:
"Finally, EI should develop with age."

(Not searchable, apparently; the quotation is from the Google result.)
Salovey, Brackett and Mayer on their work:
"they [emotional skills] develop with age"
Emotional Intelligence: Key Readings on the Mayer and Salovey Model, p. 244
http://books.google.es/books?id=YVKmxr_D7yQC&pg=PT217&lpg=PT...
Mayer again:
"according to EI theory, these skills develop with age and experience"
http://therulerapproach.org/images/uploads/documents/Rivers_...
File not found, quotation from Google result.
And there are more; it's what people tend to say when referring to the work of Mayer et al. I think you can safely settle for it; it's OK, really.

I know just what you mean, Peter. The trouble is, I find, that when you are worrying over an expression you quite soon lose the ability to tell whether it sounds right or not.

Note from asker:
Yes, Charles, after thirty minutes of frenetic googling I'm beginning to think that what occurred to me first is the best I'm going to do. |
As is so often the case. We tend to get overwrought about things which can be quite simple. |
I have changed sentence around and now have "how EI develops with age" and feel much more relaxed. Time for a glass of wine! |

with the passage/passing of time
How's this?
+1

throughout the life span
Or: "lifespan"
Not to unduly complicate things, but this is really a far more natural alternative (especially within a developmental psychology context) than any of the other options thus far proposed.
Suerte.

Yes. This is the term that I've generally seen used in psychological studies. Thank you, Teresa.
