Abstract
The purpose of this study is to measure the anger of each scene and to analyze the relationship between anger and health. Subjects were 191 undergraduates (61 men and 130 women).
First, 50 items of “Anger Scale for Undergraduates” were collected by the free description survey about the anger scene. In this survey, “Anger Scale for Undergraduates” and “CMI Medical Index” were implemented during the schooltime. The result of factor analysis about 35 items which weren't deleted by the item analysis, “Anger Scale for Underegraduates” was composed of 5 factors (the relationship with friend, the dissatisfaction at the self, the dissatisfaction at the others, the school life, the relationship with parents). In this way, “Anger Scale for Undergraduates (35 items)” was constructed to measure the anger of each scene.
Next, the coefficient of correlation with anger score and CMI score was calculated to analyze relation between anger and health. As the result, it found that the anger score was related especially closely to the mental subjective symptoms (the anger, the anxiety, the inadequacy). Moreover, as the result of ANOVA, a person with the stronger neurosis tendency had, the higher anger score was.
