News items on 'Anger'
Delinquents 'misinterpret anger'
(BBC 20/09/2009)
Teenage boys who get into trouble with the law may have difficulty interpreting social cues in others, say researchers. A Japanese study of young offenders found they more frequently mistook facial expressions of disgust for anger than their peers. Researchers said the misinterpretation might lead them to see a situation as more hostile than it was. One UK expert said the ability to read facial expressions was "fundamental".
Anger is now Britain's only growth industry
(Telegraph 24/04/2009)
Britain is boiling, and it's not because summer has arrived. There's no escaping it: as a nation, we're getting angrier. Rage is all the rage. Rancour is one of our few remaining growth industries; it's about the only thing this country produces. If you have a laptop handy, go to a news website now. A broadsheet site, a tabloid site, Sky News - anywhere that lets readers post comments beneath the stories. Everyone, or so it seems, is livid, and they're keen to let everyone else know.
Anger 'increases risk of a fatal heart attack'
(Daily Mail 10/03/2009)
Scientists said last night that healthy people who lose their temper are 19% more likely to die of a heart attack than those who keep their emotions under control. And in those who already have heart disease the risk of dying from their condition rises to 24%. The British study found that the association was much greater in men than women, possibly related to stress in daily life [method of calculating risk not clear from news article].
Want to get ahead at work? Lose your temper
(BBC 02/03/2009)
Getting angry at work may not be a bad thing, and may in fact help you move up the career ladder, researchers believe. The Harvard Medical School study found those who repressed frustration were three times more likely to say they had reached a glass ceiling. But the team, which has followed 824 people over 44 years, said it was important to remain in control when standing your ground. Outright fury was destructive, the researchers added.
Health advice: How to combat anger
(Telegraph 05/02/2009)
On the outside I am a calm, rational person who copes well with stress, but lately I feel so angry all the time. I get into violent rages over small things - missing a bus has me in floods of tears, while a friend changing a plan to meet at the last minute makes me want to scream and act out terrible vengeance.
