Physical Limitation and Anger

Abstract

Is there a relationship between physical limitation and anger proneness? And, if so, is this relationship conditioned by associated differences in stress exposure and the availability of psychosocial coping resources? We explore these questions using data from a two-wave panel study including a representative sample of persons with and without physical limitations ( N = 1,473). Results of longitudinal change analysis demonstrate that physical limitation is associated with an increased tendency to both experience and express anger. Findings also reveal that this association is largely accounted for by variations in the experience of discrimination and differences in the psychosocial coping resources of mastery and self-esteem
