Abstract:
The study examined the effect of Enright Process Model on levels of forgiveness and anger among college students in the Eastern Region of Ghana. Quasi Experimental design was used for the study. The population for the study was all level 100 students in Seventh Day Adventist (S.D.A) and Mount Mary College of Education in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The simple random sampling was used to select the two schools and purposive sampling also helped in getting the 13 participants for the experimental and control group. Questionnaires were used to collect data. The Attitude scale and the General anger inventory were used for data collection. The Cronbach’s coefficient alpha for the attitude scale was .93 while that for the Anger inventory was 0.87. Descriptive statistics, the independent, dependent sample t-test, simple regression and correlation were used to analyse the data. The results showed that, to a great extent, the Enright Process model had an impact on the experimental group’s level of forgiveness but not on anger. It is recommended from the findings of the study that the Enright Process model is very effective in helping clients who have unforgiveness problem and are bitter towards people who have hurt them to forgive. Therefore, I recommend that counsellors employ the Enright Process model as an intervention for people with unforgiveness and anger.
