Interacting Factors of Anger
Anger comes from three interacting factors:
- A provocation or trigger. It's what happened right before you got angry (being cut off in traffic, or insulted by someone, for example)
- The person's interpretation of the provocation. When you blow things out of proportion, overgeneralise, or label people in inflammatory ways, you become angrier than you otherwise would
- Their mood at the time, such as tired, stressed, hungry, already angry.
