Article type: Original article Background and Aim: Hypertension is a common problem in many societies which can be prevented in many cases. Various factors contribute to this disease, such as psychological factors. Therefore, the present study aimed to compare the level of emotional control and anger in hypertensive and normotensive subjects in Arak city, Iran. Materials and Methods: The present analytical descriptive study made a comparison between the hypertensive and normotensives subjects. For this purpose, the statistical population included all the individuals who referred to the Imam Reza clinic in Arak in 2018. The samples were selected using purposive sampling and divided into 2 groups. The first group included 100 essential hypertension patients while the second group included normotensives subjects. The data were collected using the Emotional Control Questionnaire and the Standard Anger Control Questionnaire. Moreover, the data were analyzed in SPSS software (version 23) using a t-test and multivariate analysis of variance. Results: Based on the results, the level of anger in hypertension patients was significantly higher than the other group. The mean scores of hypertensive and normotensive subjects were 55.43±15.12 and 48.93±16.25, respectively (P<0.01). Moreover, the mean score of emotional control of normotensive subjects was significantly higher (19.82±10.25) than hypertension patients (13.37±10.08) (P<0.01). Conclusion: The results were consistent with most studies previously performed in this field. It can be concluded that it is possible to control hypertension by using techniques to control emotion and reduce anger.
