[2] Cognitive Aspects of Anger
- Anger is linked to a perception of damage or hurt and we become angry if we think we have been treated unfairly.
- It is not simply the hurt or damage that make up angry but the violation of rules and expectations.
- The link between anger and intimacy: the closer our relationship with someone, the more likely we are to have expectations from this person. To complicate the picture, we rarely tell people about our expectations, or even become aware of them ourselves, until they have been broken then we feel hurt and often angry.
