“…Furthermore, hostility may predict reduction in longevity and the increased likelihood of developing conditions such as hypertension and stroke (for a review, see Smith & MacKenzie, 2006). Hostility may also be associated with interpersonal and occupational problems, including greater discord in close relationships (Miller, Smith, Turner, Guijarro, & Hallet, 1996;Newton & Keicolt-Glaser, 1995;Smith, Pope, Saunders, Allred, & O'Keefe, 1998;Siegler et al, 2003), lower occupational status, and greater negative mood at work (Flory, Matthews, & Owens, 1998). It is possible that this interpersonal and occupational dysfunction may at least partially explain the finding that hostility is associated with depression risk (Ingram, Trenary, Odom, Berry, & Nelson, 2007).…”

Background: There is a growing body of literature in favor of cognitive therapy on anger in the world. Objectives: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of cognitive-behavioral group therapy in the reduction of state-trait anger and increase of general health among female students of Khorasgan Azad University, Isfahan. Materials and Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental research. A number of 40 students from the humanity sciences faculty of Khorasgan Azad University, who accepted the invitation to the study, were selected and randomly assigned to the experimental (n = 20 participants) and control (n = 20 participants) groups. The group therapy, based on Reilly & Shropshire's model (2000), was held in 8 weekly sessions at Khorasgan Azad University. The participants were asked to fill out the Spielberger's state-trait and general health questionnaires in the pre-test, post-test and follow-up test (6 months later). Results:The results of multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) showed a significant difference between the groups in the mean scores of state anger, anxiety, social dysfunction, depression, and general health in the post-test (P < 0.05). However, there was not a significant difference in the mean scores of trait anger and somatic symptom in this stage. In the follow-up stage, there was a significant difference in all the variables between the two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Cognitive-behavioral group therapy could be an appropriate approach in decreasing anger and improving general health among female students.

“…The feeling of anger varies according to the way it is express (Arslan, 2010), and people may deal with or express their anger in various adaptive or maladaptive ways (Choi, Kim, Shin, & Cho, 2001), and unhealthy anger expression is linked to numerous physical and mental illnesses. Recent research has demonstrated a connection between anger, anger-related feelings, and increased risk for hypertension, cardiovascular disease (Lavoie, Miller, Conway, & Fleet, 2001), and for many other causes of morbidity and mortality (Siegler et al, 2003).…”

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of anger expression in middle-aged Korean women by categorizing their patterns of expression while considering the complexity and multidimensionality of anger, and by investigating the characteristics relative to the patterns. Methods: The research design was a descriptive design using Q methodology, which is a method of measuring subjectivity. A convenience sample of 42 participants aged 40-60 years and living in the community in Korea was recruited. The PC-QUANL software program (a factor analysis program for the Q technique) was used to analyze the Q-sort data. Results: Four factors were extracted that described different expressions of anger among middleaged Korean women; these factors explained 50.1% of the total variance. The frames of reference of the four factors were a) direct diversion, b) silent masking with remaining anger, c) self digestion, and d) controlling anger with objectification. Conclusion: In this study has identified patterns and characteristics of anger expression among middle-aged Korean women were identified, which will aid the development of effective anger-management programs for controlling anger in this population. In future studies, it would be helpful to investigate how the patterns of anger expression established herein are associated with specific health problems such as cardiovascular disorder and cancer.
