FACTORS OF ANGER AND MANAGEMENT AMONG OLSHCO STUDENTS 2

CHAPTER 1

“Anger is to completely human, normal

and healthy human emotion. But when it gets
out of control and turns destructive, it can lead
to problems…”

-American Psychological Association

People are capable of feeling different emotions like sadness, happiness, hate, envy,

jealousy, and anger. However, anger is one of the most destructive of all emotions. It can change

a man into an animal. When anger takes control, it can make a person violent, aggressive and

unreasonable. A person tends to be vocal and starts shouting, curse, throw the things that come

within reach, slams the doors, treats people coldly and suppresses anger.

Here in Our lady of the Sacred Herat College, Inc. (OLSCHO), external expression of anger can

be observed from the daily lives of students through facial expressions, body language,

psychological responses, and at times public acts of aggression.

There are factors affecting every human being to feel anger. These can make a big impact on

one’s life especially when it causes someone to get an intense emotional response. In the case of

OLSHCO students, examples that can stimulate anger are: impolite treatment of staffs (non-

teaching staff), giving unnecessary and too many requirements from instructors of minor subjects

(academic faculty), and conflicts among group mates (students).

Anger is an initial response but it can last for a long term especially when a person do not make a

course of action to forget about it. People have various ways to reduce anger and it takes

different periods of time for an anger to ease depending on the person feeling it. If failed to

control anger, it will be the one to control a person. For this reason, a person needs to know

different ways to manage anger. Anger management is a way to recognize and control anger in a

positive way which can help an individual to relive stress and have a peace of mind. Note that

anger management is different from suppressing anger.

Since it is natural for an individual to feel anger, OLSHCO students certainly get angry

for particular problem. These students that belong to different levels of (Grade 11 and 12) at

OLSHCO have their own intensities of anger. The number of students from each level who have

strong feeling of displeasure might vary. Its relatively can yield a significant explanation that can

justify the reasons behind the anger that these students are feeling.

Based on the observations mentioned above, the researchers were motivated to conduct

this study that focuses on the factors that influence the anger of OLSHCO students, how long it

takes for them to ease this feeling of displeasure, the different ways of anger management and

what Grade level of OLSHCO students are the most prone to anger.

This research may specifically benefit, first, the school. It will help OLSHCO be

enlightened towards the reasons that cause the anger of students with to the non-academic staffs,

academic faculties as well as co-students. Second, is the community. This study will help the

neighbours to know more about anger management. The research will benefit an individual to

have better self-control which can lead to betterment of society. The third one is the student. This

study will help assess the way the students react on different situations as well as the different

effective ways of handling anger. Lastly, this study will help the researchers develop into

productive youth molded by experience. This research will also help in contributing new

knowledge aside from time and effort.
