我们以 445 名女大学生和 260 名男大学生为样本，调查了愤怒的体验和表达与性别、性别角色特征和一些心理健康变量之间的关系。对愤怒、攻击性和敌意的 17 项指标进行因子分析，揭示了攻击性行为、高愤怒倾向、言语表达愤怒控制不佳以及愤怒抑制的三因素模式。相关和层次回归分析表明，愤怒综合因素是心理健康变量的强有力的预测因子。男性气质，但不是女性气质或双性同体，也对心理健康变量的预测做出了相当一致的独特贡献。性别对于任何心理健康变量的预测都没有独特的贡献，也没有调节这些变量与其他预测因素的关系。
Using a sample of 445 female and 260 male college students, we investigated relationships between the experience and expression of anger and gender, gender role characteristics, and several mental health variables. Factor analyses of 17 measures of anger, aggressiveness, and hostility revealed a 3-factor pattern of aggressive acting-out, high anger proneness and poorly controlled verbally expressed anger, and anger suppression. Correlational and hierarchical regression analyses indicated that the anger composites were strong predictors of the mental health variables. Masculinity, but not femininity or androgyny, also made fairly consistent unique contributions to the prediction of the mental health variables. Gender did not uniquely contribute to the prediction of any of the mental health variables, nor did it moderate the relationships of these variables with other predictors.
