ABSTRACT
The emotion of anger does not have a good reputation. Most experts advise avoiding anger, exerting self-control, and even enrolling in anger management classes to assist in dealing with this emotion. Without much doubt, anger can be dangerous, both to those around the angry person and to the angry person. However, psychologists have discovered some positive effects of experiencing anger and some gender-related differences in who tends to experience these benefi ts (Young, 2013).
