Modern psychologists view anger as a primary, natural, and mature [[emotion]] [[experience]]d by all [[human]]s at times, and as something that has [[function]]al [[value]] for survival. Anger can mobilize psychological resources for corrective [[action]]. Uncontrolled anger can, however, negatively affect personal or social well-being.[7][8] While many philosophers and writers have warned against the spontaneous and uncontrolled fits of anger, there has been disagreement over the intrinsic value of anger.[9] Dealing with anger has been addressed in the writings of earliest philosophers up to modern times. Modern psychologists, in contrast to the earlier writers, have also pointed out the possible harmful effects of suppression of anger.[9] Displays of anger can be used as a manipulation strategy for social influence.[10][11] | Modern psychologists view anger as a primary, natural, and mature [[emotion]] [[experience]]d by all [[human]]s at times, and as something that has [[function]]al [[value]] for survival.
