Produktbeschreibung
Anger is an emotion that often understood and discouraged in American society. Anger expression may be considered inappropriate in many settings. However, adolescents are oftentimes unable to control anger due to learned behavior or lack of cognitive development. Juvenile offenders are targeted for rehabilitation by the juvenile justice system, however, without resources for anger management, their success is limited. This publication specifically deals with self-instructional techniques for Anger Management and shows research results applied to juvenile offenders. It tracks the results of these techniques as measured by the State Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) by C. D. Spielberger. Finally, it shows the reader how anger management techniques can be effectively used with this population without having to use costly programs.
