“…Research findings have shown that there is a relationship between anger and health indicators and long-term serious health risks including hypertension (e.g., Everson, Goldberg, Kaplan, Julkunen, & Salonen, 1998;Everson, et al, 1997;Harburg, Julius, Kaciroti, Gliberman, & Schork, 2003;Mendes de Leon, 1992;Siegman, Townsend, Blumenthal, Sorkin, & Civelek, 1998;Smith & Ruize, 2002), blood pressure (Bishop, Ngau, & Pek, 2008;Bongard & al'Absi, 2005;Everson et al, 1998;Gallagher, Yarnell, Sweetnam, Elwood, & Stansfeld, 1999;Harburg, Gliberman, Russel, & Cooper,1991;Hogan & Linden, 2005;Jorgersen, Johnson, Kolodziej, & Schreer, 1996;Spicer & Chamberlin, 1996;Suls, Wan, & Costa, 1995), chronic headache (Duckro, ChibnallTomazic, 1995;Materazzo, Chathcart, & Pritchard, 2000;Spierings & Van Hoof, 1996), asthma (Friedman & Booth-Keweley, 1987), and cancer (Thomas et al, 2000). Higher levels of anger also predict the mortality rate (Harburg et al, 2003).…”
