Is there a reason why so many studies (this included) fail to report the effect size? The way "significant" is used in literature, readers (even the educated ones) interpret the research as suggesting some groundbreaking result.

Here, for example, only a 1-ish point change occurred on a six point scale from 3 to 2. I say 1-ish because the confidence intervals are rather wide and even intersect somewhat (see discussion.)

So anger is not eliminated rather you'll be somewhat less angry.
