Can you point me to one example from your studies in which anger diminished and stayed that way for many months following forgiveness therapy?

Yes, here is a reference to a research study that we did with men in a maximum-security correctional context.  All of them were clinically angry at the pretest.  At post-test, six months later, they went to normal levels of anger.  At the six-month follow-up (six months after the post-test), they still were at the normal level of anger.  Here is that reference:
