The present study investigated the relationships between aggression, anger-coping behaviors and happiness. Aggression consisted of four factors(Physical/Verbal aggression, Hostility, and Anger). Anger coping behaviors were classified into five factors(Rational coping, Aggressive expression, Avoidance, Emotional resolution, and Distraction). Happiness was assessed by the Satisfaction with life and the Positive/Negative affect. 387 undergraduates served as subjects. Relationships between aggression and happiness varied according to the aggression and happiness factors. Hostility showed the most negative correlation with happiness, and Physical aggression and Anger were also negatively correlated with happiness. However, when controlling for Hostility, Physical aggression and Verbal aggression were positively correlated with happiness, and Anger displayed no correlation. Hostility, Physical aggression, the Verbal aggression and Anger were positively correlated with Negative affect, but when controling for Hostility, the correlations were not significant. These results indicate the relationships between Aggression and happiness were caused by hostility. It seems that Hostility among all factors of Aggression had an especially strong effect on happiness. Among anger-coping behaviors, Avoidance was correlated with all happiness factors, negatively with the Satisfaction with life and the Positive affect, and positively with the Negative affect. The strongest predictor of happiness was Hostility in aggression and Avoidance in anger-coping behaviors. Some anger-coping behaviors(Avoidance, Distraction, and Rational coping) were significantly correlated with happiness after controling for aggression. The Implications and limitations of this study are also discussed.
