摘要:Anger is a frequently experienced negative emotion that occurs identified in all ages and across all cultures (DiGiuseppe & Tafrate, 2007). Parent anger is concerning because it has been associated with dysfunctional discipline strategies, child abuse, child noncompliance, and various emotional problems during childhood (see Smith Slep & O’Leary, 2001). The Parent Anger Scale is a new measure for parent anger developed based on new data in the field. The purpose of this study was to psychometrically validate the Parent Anger Scale (PAS). Results show adequate properties of the scale based on a 1-factor solution.
