Abstract
To the extent that anger is an interpersonal emotion, the experiences of the angry person can provide only part of the story; the experiences of the target are also important, particularly for an understanding of the possible functional significance of anger. It is, after all, primarily through the target that anger must exert its influsence. The purpose of Study II, reported in the present chapter, was therefore to explore the reactions of the target to another’s anger.
