![]() The normative sample for the STAXI-2 included more than 1,900 individuals (1,644 normal adults, 276 hospitalized psychiatric patients). Individuals rate themselves on 4-point scales that assess both the intensity of their anger at a particular time and the frequency that anger is experienced, expressed, and controlled. The Anger Expression and Anger Control scales assess four relatively independent anger-related traits: (a) expression of anger toward other persons or objects in the environment (Anger Expression-Out) (b) holding in or suppressing angry feelings (Anger Expression-In) (c) controlling angry feelings by preventing the expression of anger toward other persons or objects in the environment (Anger Control-Out) and (d) controlling suppressed angry feelings by calming down or cooling off (Anger Control-In).Ī 6th-grade reading ability is generally required to complete the STAXI-2. The Trait Anger scale measures how often angry feelings are experienced over time. The STAXI-2 State Anger scale assesses the intensity of anger as an emotional state at a particular time. ![]()
