Ekspresja emocji a subiektywny stan zdrowia. Regulacyjna rola oceny kontrolnej u kobiet
Expression of emotions and subjective state of health. The regulatory role of control assessment

Summary/Abstract: There is no consensus in the psychological literature regarding assessment of the impact that negative emotions exert on health / disease. It is neither clearly defined what role is played by the sense of self-esteem or guilt in this process. The aim of this study is to answer the question: When and how expression of anger is beneficial to health (well-being) and what is the role of control assessment. Subjective health assessment (SHA), intensity and direction of anger expression (AES), guilt (SEC), self-esteem (SES) have been analyzed together with the results in 141 women aged 20-24 years. It has been found out that 1) expression of anger may have positive health implications if it is involved in achieving goals, 2) externally expressed anger benefits health if it is associated with situational guilt, 3) internal anger benefits health if it is not associated with the sense of guilt.
