anger can be defined as *ƒ*†’gan emotional state that varies in intensity from mild
irritation to intense fury and rage*ƒ*†’h. Any person will know how anger feel like as
anyone has experienced anger in life due to various reasons. According to psychologist it

This survey is conducted based on *ƒ*†’gAnger expression scale*ƒ*†’h by Charles
Spielberger, to test the hypothesis *ƒ*†’gMen are prone anger compare to women*ƒ*†’h.
In this Anger expression scale there are three categories, there are anger state category
which has 5 statements, anger trait category which has 5 statements as well and anger
expression which has 12 statements, there are total 22 statements to be answer using
scales. Anger state refers to the current feeling of the person, how the person emotion state

expression out (expression of anger towards people or environment), anger expression in
(suppression of angry feeling), anger control in (suppression of anger by cooling down)
and anger control out (preventing anger expression toward people or environment).

fatal illnesses like heart disease, stroke, and cancer, women live on with non-fatal
conditions such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and diabetes.*ƒ*†’h from the statement we can
