inexcitability
Immunity to agitation
Inexcitability is the quality of being unable to be excited or aroused—whether emotionally or physiologically.
In medicine, it describes tissue (especially nerve or muscle) that fails to respond to stimulation.
More broadly, it suggests an unflappable temperament: His inexcitability under pressure made him ideal for crisis management.
