Resumo: This paper aims to understand the nature of the anger response and explore the relationship between anger, shame, depression and paranoia beliefs. The sample consists of 208 individuals from the general population, with a mean age of 32.67 years. Results show that external shame and depressive symptoms have a signifi cant and independent contribution to current feelings of anger (state-anger) and to the expression of anger towards people and objects (anger-out). The key fi nding in this study is that trait-anger temperament is the best global predictor of paranoid beliefs, followed by external shame and depressive symptoms. Overall, these results may provide new perspectives on the nature of anger, highlighting the interrelationship between threat-defensive emotions and their impact on paranoid beliefs.

La muestra se compuso de 208 individuos de la población general, con una media de edad de 32.67 años. Los resultados muestran que la vergüenza externa y los síntomas depresivos tienen una contribución signifi cativa e independiente a los sentimientos de ira (estado de ira) así como a la expresión de ésta hacia las personas y los objetos (externalización de la ira). La principal conclusión de este estudio es que el rasgo temperamental de ira es el mejor predictor global de las creencias paranoides, seguido de la vergüenza y de los síntomas de depresión. En general, estos resultados pueden proporcionar nuevas perspectivas sobre la naturaleza de la ira, poniendo en relieve la relación entre las emociones de amenaza-defensiva y su impacto en las creencias paranoides.2016info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://hdl.handle.net/10316/102596http://hdl.handle.net/10316/102596https://doi.org/10.5944/rppc.vol.20.num.3.2015.15895eng2254-60571136-5420Castilho, PaulaXavier, AnaGouveia, José Pinto deCosta, Tâniainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2022-10-03T20:31:37Zoai:estudogeral.uc.pt:10316/102596Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T21:19:33.137925Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
