Abstract
This paper examines the benefits of learning anger management in a group setting, which can teach the skills necessary for the individuals in the group to be able to curb their anger and control their subsequent behavior. The paper describes a specific anger management program which is intended to help high-risk young males decrease their drug involvement, increase their school performance, and decrease depression and suicidal thoughts and behaviors. These high-risk young men have more negative school experiences, greater drug involvement, more emotion problems, more negative peer pressures, and a greater likelihood of family dysfunction.

These high-risk young men have more negative school experiences, greater drug involvement, more emotion problems, more negative peer pressures, and a greater likelihood of family dysfunction. Youth in this category are at an increased risk to perform poorly in school, get suspended or expelled, and have frequent absences."

Abstract
This paper explains that anger in the workplace is the aftermath of complaints against the organization and more personal complaints, such as complaints against a co-worker, an immediate supervisor or a subordinate. The author points out that, to avoid problems of anger in the workplace, management must recognize the existence of diversity among its employees and must avoid dominance by individuals and sub-groups. The paper relates that barriers to the prevention of anger are lack of (1) trust, which is portrayed through truthfulness, sincerity and commitment; (2) culturally and personality sensitive leadership and (3) explicit knowledge.

From the Paper
"Instrumental anger is the exact antithesis of destructive anger. When one demonstrates this form of anger, he and the people around him will have a drastic change of behavior, line of thinking and even physical appearances. However, the change may not always be n a positive side. In the workplace, there are times that the top management may feel angry towards the subordinates because of low productivity, incompetent workers, tardiness of the workforce and the likes. This may cause him to voice out his anger or write a memo which will trigger immediate response from the concerned workers."

Abstract
This paper explains Harriet Lerner's "The Dance of Anger" teaches women that anger can be a constructive emotion, which can help strengthen personal relationships. The author points out one of the most valuable teachings is that anger is a signal worth listening to, directly contrary to the beliefs of many women, who deny and silence their anger, apparently out of a feeling that anger is a destructive emotion. The paper relates that Lerner notes anger can be a valuable tool in helping women to empower themselves.

From the Paper
"Lerner's book was initially attractive because of the title's emphasis on anger. I have known many women in my life who seem to feel that anger is an unattractive and unhealthy emotion that should be suppressed and avoided. As a result, these women seemed to suffer from a great deal of repressed hostility in their personal and work relationships. They would rarely become outwardly angry at people, and yet they would comfortably undermine the confidence of others, and act out in a passive-aggressive manner."

Abstract
This paper attempts to dissect the concept of anger as a mixture of thoughts, feelings and emotions. It provides various definitions and interpretations and analyzes how it is caused. It shows how unexpressed anger can create problems leading to pathological portrayals of anger, such as passive-aggressive behavior and how anger turned inward may cause hypertension, high blood pressure or depression. It evaluates if anger is particularly gender specific since boys have more frequent temper tantrums than girls and discusses various forms of anger management giving examples from the Bible.

From the Paper
"As culturally prescribed sex roles fade in our culture, the gender differences in aggressiveness may decline but will men become less aggressive or women more aggressive or both (mentalhelp.org)" The crime rate for women is increasing much more quickly than for men (mentalhelp.org). Also, experimental studies of punishment show women administering just as much electric shock to test subjects as men do (mentalhelp.org). Boys and men expect acting aggressive to pay off, girls and women don't (mentalhelp.org). Women experience more distress and guilt after aggression than men do; they also are more sympathetic with the victim afterwards (mentalhelp.org). Some studies show that about 50% of college students both males and females account having been physically aggressive to some extent (from throwing something to beating up on someone) (mentalhelp.org)."

Abstract
This paper defines anger and discusses what happens when it gets out of control, when it can become very destructive. The author describes causes and effects of anger and explains that internalizing it can lead to massive releases of rage and even health problems when people finally allow it to surface. Different types of anger management methods are described, including relaxation techniques, cognitive restructuring and problem solving. The paper concludes with the suggestion that a valuable follow-up research project might be to compare anger between teenage or young adult male and female gang members to shed light on what causes people to join gangs, the difference between girls' and boys' gangs, and which is the angrier and has more potential for violence.

From the Paper
"What causes anger? Just about any stressful or negative situation can cause anger, and everyone feels anger throughout his or her lifetime. However, people react differently to anger, and to the situations that can make them angry, and that is often a product of people's temperament, how they saw others deal with anger, and how they learn about anger and managing anger. Some people are just angrier than others are, and they show it in different ways. Often, it is frustration that causes anger. This is called the "frustration-aggression hypothesis" and it shows that frustration can lead to aggression and anger in most people."

Abstract
This paper analyzes Sandra P. Thomas' 1997 article, "Women's Anger: Relationship of Suppression to Blood Pressure" which looks at the effect of anger suppression on blood pressure in women. The paper shows that the aim of the study in this article was to examine the relationship between anger frequency, intensity and suppression to blood pressure and to see if there were differences in these parameters between women with respect to age, family history of hypertension and marital status.

From the Paper
"While the effect of anger on women's BP is important, there are so many variables involved, both physical and psychological, that a meaningful study is difficult to conduct. Sample chosen, timing of study, method of assessing anger and anger suppression, measurements of BP and their timing, and a host of health and psychological factors come into play and it is impossible to account for all variables (Fontana, Pontari and Nash, 1998, p. 2). The "white coat effect" on BP may come into play in a test setting. Results of these types of studies are difficult to assess accurately, and they can do no more than indicate some potential problem areas."

Abstract
This paper describes and explains several different approaches to anger management and looks at how effective these methods proved to be, according to the studies cited. The paper concludes that the studies cited indicate the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy and other psycho-educational interventions as effective anger management methods.

Conclusion

From the Paper
"Snyder et al (1999), studied the positive effects of brief intervention in the form of group therapy on adolescent subjects exhibiting severe anger. For the study the researchers included 50 adolescent participants (28 males and 22 females) from a New York Psychiatric hospital. These subjects were carefully chosen after a screening of the inmates in the hospital and only those adolescents who scored above 75% in the anger scale of the 'State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory' (STAEI) qualified for the research. They were arbitrarily assigned either to treatment groups or to control groups. A four-session anger management-training program was provided for the adolescents in the experimental group. All the subjects were rated for their anger levels, control and aggressive behavior, under experimental or control conditions. Their anger management skills and their behavior in social settings were recorded during the pre and post treatment phase. After the 2 weeks of training in acquiring anger management skills the subjects were discharged from the hospital environment and their progress observed in social settings."
