Answers

A.  Women try to divert anger by escaping (1) awareness, (2) deliberate expression, or (3) constructive use of their anger.
B.  Surface acting involves conforming to display rules by simulating emotions that are not actually felt. This is accomplished by careful presentation of verbal and non- verbal cues such as facial expression, gestures and voice tone. Deep acting on the other hand involves the actor attempting to actually experience or feel the emotion that they wish (or that they are expected) to display. Feelings are actively induced as the actor ‘psyches’ him/ herself into the desired persona; it is similar to the way that professional actors from the ‘method’ school of acting psyche themselves up for a role.
C. The Anger Evaluation Survey explores affective, cognitive, and behavioral responses to anger-provoking situations.
D. Both groups were less likely to express anger if "the anger was not justified" (students, 83%; employees, 80%), "the situation occurs in public" (86% and 90%, respectively), or "the target person will feel hurt" (86% and 82%, respectively).
E.  Anger of hope was used instrumentally to discourage another’s unwanted or negative behaviors, to surmount obstacles
in a relationship, and actually to maintain attachments with others.
F.  People who tried either to conceal their anger or externalize it by blaming others are at a higher risk for anxiety, tension and panic attacks.
G.  Women learn direct anger expression is unfeminine and unattractive.
H.  Deffenbacher's suggestions on Anger Management Programs are: (1) Consider group therapy (2) Allot time for practice (3) Strategies to Individualize treatment (4) Consider co-existing problems (5) Address resistance and readiness
I.  (1) Make good time, (2) Be number one, (3) Try and make me,  (4) They shouldn't allow it, and (5) Teach them a lesson
J.  Aggressive driving behavior occurs under conditions of anonymity
K.  Display rules are behavioral expectations about which emotions ought to be expressed and which ought to be hidden’ and are generally a function of ‘societal norms, occupational norms and organizational norms’
L.  (a) Hostile Gestures, (b) Illegal, (c) Police Presence, (d) Slow Driving, (e) Discourtesy, and (f) Traffic Obstructions
