“…Driving anger provoked by these three factors differed not only in their mean scores but also in the directions and magnitudes of their associations with aberrant driving behaviours, indicating they are three psychologically different types of anger. Moreover, the validity of this three-factor model supports the notion that driving anger is a heterogeneous construct (Nesbit et al, 2007). A 23-item Driver Behaviour Questionnaire (DBQ) was developed in this study by referring to two previous Chinese DBQ studies (Xie and Parker, 2002;Shi et al, 2010).…”

“…It has been suggested that the relations between driving anger and aberrant driving behaviours may be more complex than currently conceptualized by traffic safety researchers (Nesbit et al, 2007;Li et al, 2014). This study investigated how the dimensions of driving anger may distinct and have different relationships to driving behaviours using a Chinese driver sample.…”

“…In one review on the relationship between driving anger and aggression, Nesbit et al (2007) found that driving anger was a heterogeneous construct, and suggested a re-evaluation of existing driving anger questionnaires to explore possible different dimensions of driving anger. Also, according to the appraisal theory, anger is provoked when a stimulus is appraised as against the goals of the individual (Roseman and Smith, 2001).…”

“…Barefoot, Dahlstrom, and Williams (1983) reported that individuals with less social support showed aggressiveness or hostility. In the meta-analysis study by Nesbit, Conger, and Conger (2007), they found a correlation of 0.40 between the aggressiveness and the anger. From this perspective, the anger leads to occurrence of aggressive reactions when it is not expressed in a healthy or constructive manner (Berkowitz, 1990;Ellis, 1997).…”

This research is a quasi-experimental study with pretest-posttest-fallow up test and experiment-control group to investigate the influence of Choice Theory-based Anger Management Psychoeducation Program (CTAMP) on the ability of students of Department of Psychological Counseling and Guidance (PCG) for anger management. The Trait Anger-Anger Style Scale was used for the dependent variable. 40 students were identified as eligible to participate in the study based on the scores from subscales of STAS. Then a total of 18 volunteer students (14 females and 5 males) were identified that had time to participate in activities. The control group included 19 students (14 females, 5 males). The CTAMP was administrated to the experimental group for twelve weeks, and no procedures were performed for the control group. Then, reminder sessions were held for 3 more weeks for the control group and the final follow-up measurement was taken. The data was analyzed by SPSS 18 packet program. The t-test was performed to find the differences between the follow up pretest-follow up posttest scores in the experimental and control groups, and ANOVA was carried out to find the within-group differences for repeated measurements. At the end of CTAMP that lasted 12 weeks, it is observed that the trait anger-anger, anger-in and anger-out scores for the experimental group were reduced from the pretest to posttest, but the anger control scores were increased. At the end of follow-up sessions, the variance in the scores was similar.

“…To counter this, politics focused on improving safety measures that are implemented in the traffic surroundings, e.g., guard railing, while car manufacturers improved passenger protection. Albeit these improvements, research still suggests that emotions are a main cause for maladjusted driving that leads to accidents [e.g., 2,3,4]. Therefore, emotions are an important object of applied human factors research aiming at an optimized human-machine interaction.…”

Abstract. As cars become increasingly computerized, automatic emotion detection and affective computing provides a promising basis for future-oriented human-computer interaction (HCI) in cars. However, we are still facing severe problems when trying to detect the users' emotional state reliably. This experimental study investigated grip-strength as a new non-invasive method to detect emotions directly in an automobile context. A positive emotion (happiness) and a negative emotion (anger) were examined regarding their influence on gripstrength applied to the steering wheel. Results confirmed and extended preliminary findings: Drivers' grip-strength slightly increased while driving a car when happiness was experienced and especially decreased when anger was experienced. Implications for further research as well as for praxis are outlined.
