Linguists:

I am attempting to research speech modification(s) in individuals who
are angry--both hot and cold would suffice.  An example could be:

-People sometimes refer to their speech when (very) angry as something
that has gotten over them and later become apologetic.

It is in this type of speech that I am looking to find the structure
of their utterances.  I'm primarily looking for expletive patterns,
but as of now, just the speech would help.  However, I am running into
a dead end.  I have searched Linguist List Plus and numerous searches
on Google for any similar articles or case studies without luck.  Does
anyone know where I can find such articles or books?  Any help would
be greatly appreciated.


Many thanks in advance,
