Assessing Youth Anger: Inside And Out
Raymond DiGiuseppe, Ph.D. & Raymond Chip Tafrate Ph.D.
What you see on the outside does not always reflect what occurs on the inside, which can make it difficult to assess whether a youth is experiencing unhealthy episodes of anger. The Anger Regulation and Expression Scale (ARES) will help you assess youth tendencies towards inward and outward expressions of anger, along with the range and duration of anger experiences. Designed specifically for children and adolescents aged 10–17 years, the Anger Regulation and Expression Scales (ARES) is a multi-dimensional self-report measure of clinically dysfunctional anger. • Based on more features and expressions of anger than any other youth measure • Offers treatment and intervention suggestions • Demonstrates strong psychometric properties with excellent validity and reliability • Comprehensive computer-generated reports that describe anger experiences • Includes validity scales that detect response bias and inconsistent response style • A short version that can be used for screening and monitoring
