This study was to identify the relationships of trait anger, mode of anger expression, and perceived stress to mental health status in middle aged women.
The subjects were 157 middle aged women from 40s to 60s who lived in Seoul. Data was collected by questionnaire surveys using the convenience sampling. The instruments used for this study were Spielberger's trait anger scale and anger expression scale, Cohen, Kamarck, and Mermelstein's perceived stress and Derogatis's SCL-90-R. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation coefficient, and Stepwise multiple regression with SAS/PC.
The trait anger of middle aged women indicated a significantly positive correlation to perceived stress(r=.180, p=.023) and mental health status(r.=021, p=.014). Anger-in(r=.237, p<.05), and perceived stress(p=.461, p<.01) showed significantly positive correlation to mental health status. The most significant predictor influencing health status of middle aged women was perceived stress, and anger-in and the variance explained was 27%.
These results suggested that middle aged women with high degree of trait anger is likely to be high in stress perception. Perceived stress and anger-in are major factors influencing mental health status.
本研究旨在确定中年女性的特质愤怒、愤怒表达方式和感知压力与心理健康状况之间的关系。
研究对象为157名年龄在40到60岁之间、居住在首尔的中年女性。采用便利抽样法通过问卷调查收集数据。本研究使用的工具包括斯皮尔伯格特质愤怒量表和愤怒表达量表、科恩、卡马克和梅尔梅斯坦的感知压力量表以及德罗加蒂斯的症状自评量表90修订版（SCL-90-R）。使用SAS/PC软件对收集到的数据进行描述性统计、皮尔逊相关系数分析和逐步多元回归分析。
中年女性的特质愤怒与感知压力（r = 0.180，p = 0.023）和心理健康状况（r = 0.21，p = 0.014）呈显著正相关。内隐愤怒（r = 0.23, p < 0.05）和感知压力（p = 0.461，p < 0.01）与心理健康状况呈显著正相关。影响中年女性健康状况的最显著预测因素是感知压力，内隐愤怒的贡献率为27%。
这些结果表明，特质愤怒程度高的中年女性可能具有较高的压力感知。感知压力和内隐愤怒是影响心理健康状况的主要因素。
