N2  - One hypothesis in the literature on anger and hypertension is that a chronic tendency to suppress anger is an etiological factor in the development of hypertension. The present study assessed the relationship between anger expression and hypertension in a multicultural sample of 1,407 San Francisco bus drivers. Simple and multiple regression analyses revealed no significant differences between suppressed or expressed anger and hypertension. Thus, the results of this study do not support the hypothesis that suppressed anger is an etiological factor in hypertension.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
