The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of anger trait, anger intensity, self monitoring and sex on the copying behavior when the undergraduate student’s anger is extremely triggered via conflict from their intimate friends. The short- term and long- term positive or negative effects as well as different feelings resulting from the different copying behaviors are also studies.
The investigation was performed on 1364 undergraduate students and focused on the three evaluations: anger situational scale, anger trait, and self-monitoring scales. The
outcomes are briefly described as follows:
1.The student with high anger trait is easier to exhibit the anger-out and anger-in copying
behavior, while the low anger trait student like to exhibit the anger-control copying
behavior.
2.The student with high anger intensity is easier to follow the anger- out and anger-in
copying behavior, while the low anger intensity student like to follow the anger control
copying behavior.
3. The student with high self” monitoring has higher scores both in anger-control and
anger-out than the low self-monitoring one. However, there is no clear interaction between the self-monitoring and the publication of the situation.
4.The male student has higher score in anger-out and lower score inanger-in than the female one.
5.Findings indicated a significant interaction between subject gender and target person gender in expressing anger, both male and female areeasier to follow anger-control copying behavior when his or her anger is triggered by different sex. Nevertheless, female student has a tendency to be anger-in when her anger is triggered by the same sex, while male student is easier to be anger-out when triggered by the other males.
6. Student with anger-control copying behavior has a tendency to feel
fear, and comfort after the event, and not feel regret or with more furies. The one with
anger-out copying behavior is easier to feel delighted, regret, and more angry. The one
with anger-in copying behavior has strongest feeling of mistreats, furies, and depression.
7. The effect of short term and long term of anger-control group is better than the group with anger-out or anger-in copying behavior.
