Expressed and suppressed anger as predictors of health complaints
研究小企业主/经理中表达和压抑的愤怒与焦虑、抑郁及身体抱怨的关系,发现压抑愤怒直接关联三种健康抱怨,并调节责任压力源与焦虑、抑郁的关系。
Abstract In this study, associations were examined of expressed and suppressed anger with anxiety, depression, and somatic complaints in a sample of owner/managers of smaller businesses. A direct relationship between suppressed anger — anger‐in — and the three health complaints was found. Also, anger‐in moderated the relationship between the responsibility for people stressor and both anxiety and depression. Further, expressed anger — anger‐out — moderated the relationship between responsibility for people and depression. In each interaction, responsibility for people related more strongly with the health complaint when anger‐in or anger‐out was high than when it was low.
