Définition(s)

  • Anger is a universally recognized emotion that can generate high levels of sympathetic arousal and may be adaptive but may also have negative health consequences, particularly if it is not expressed constructively. A link between anger and bodily response has been recognized since at least the time of Hippocrates, and in modern times, Franz Alexander suggested in 1939 that hypertension and heart disease were linked to repressed anger, a proposition that has found some support in recent research.
