It was hypothesized that experimentally induced anger would result in an increased use of defense mechanisms in college students. As predicted from the theory of defense mechanism development, the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) stories of angered students showed a higher level of use of projection and identification, and the use of these defenses was significantly correlated with the presence of aggressive content in the stories. The results were consistent with previous studies in showing that the predominant defenses of late adolescents are projection and identification, and that men use more projection than women.
研究假设，实验诱导的愤怒会导致大学生更多地使用防御机制。正如从防御机制发展理论所预测的那样，愤怒学生的主题统觉测验（TAT）故事显示出投射和认同的使用水平更高，并且这些防御机制的使用与故事中攻击性内容的存在显著相关。结果与先前的研究一致，表明青少年晚期的主要防御机制是投射和认同，而且男性比女性更多地使用投射。
