Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Women experience anger as frequently as men do, but societal constraints may inhibit their expression of it. Anger, aggression, and violence should not be viewed as a continuum because one does not necessarily lead to another. Language related to anger is imprecise and confusing. People can choose to slow down their reactions and to think and behave differently in response to events; therefore, anger is not a knee-jerk reaction to external events.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
Anger management is a psychoeducational intervention. Behavioral treatment of anger involves avoidance of provoking stimuli, self-monitoring regarding cues of anger arousal, stimulus control, response disruption, and guided practice of more effective anger behaviors. Relaxation training is often introduced early in the treatment because it strengthens the therapeutic alliance and convinces clients that they can indeed learn to calm themselves when they are angry.
