The present study focused on an acquisition of personal growth through anger-inducing events among female adolescents. Negative emotional events are frequently shared with intimate others. Promotion of reappraisal and social support perception in social sharing would be dependent on disclosure-recipients' response. Personal growth would also be obtained through negotiation with anger-inducing targets. It was thus hypothesized that trial of revision, receptive response in social sharing, and constructive expression toward anger-inducing targets would facilitate personal growth. Results supported the hypothesis solely for whom anger-inducing events were socially shared. Only trial of revision had positive influence on personal growth among who did not disclosed the anger experience. These results were discussed with respect to characteristics of the events.
