Summary/Abstract: Aim: This study explores retrospectively the involvement of anger in the process of childhood trauma later elaboration in adolescence. Method: A Single Case study strategy of an adult survivor of childhood trauma was adopted using grounded theory method as analysis. Two in-depth semi-structured interviews were carried out and served as data collection together with field notes. Results: The involvement of anger was conceptualized as ‘anger as a transferred phenomenon’. Anger was observed as spreading across internally for the survivor and externally in the environment as though it was a vicious cycle impacting the body, mind, soul and environment. Its involvement within this case study, was outlined in Peter’s seven-phase Trajectory model of Anger. Conclusion: The model reflects an in-depth process of the microprocesses of the involvement of anger as seen through the eyes of a survivor of childhood trauma. This model allows us to understand in detail the transformation of the emotion of anger as captured by the lived experienced of the survivor and to appreciate the power and effect this emotion holds.
