Abstract

<p>In this study, it is proposed that over-adaptation is related to restraint of the expression of anger. Indeed, people who must constantly restrain their anger may eventually become more impulsive than others, because this unexpressed anger can build up internally. Therefore, this study examines how over-adaptation relates to anger and “kire” (i.e., impulsiveness).</p><p>The results of a questionnaire administered to 358 university students revealed that over-adaptation factors such as “self-sacrifice” and “control of emotion” positively correlate with “control of anger.” On the other hand, the over-adaptation factors of “desire to be perceived as a good person” and “inferiority awareness,” has a significantly positive correlation with “internal anger.” In addition, “inferiority awareness” bears a direct, positive correlation with “kire.” Furthermore, kire, which is related to these factors, has a significantly positive correlation with “expressions of anger.”</p><p>These results suggest that over-adaptation led to building up of emotion which was difficult to inhibit or force in and thus manifested itself impulsively or aggressively.</p>
