abstract="This study examined the internal validity of the SCARE program; an eclectic anger and aggression management program that was developed in collaboration with high school students. Young adolescents at-risk for anger and aggression related problems were randomly assigned into treatment conditions (experimental versus control). Pre and post measures were collected across multiple modalities, and were assessed by way of a multivariate experimental design. Individual's exposed to the SCARE program reflected significantly lower levels of anger and aggression, and a slightly (although not significantly) higher level of anger control. 1 year follow-up data showed that students exposed to SCARE continued to reflect significantly lower scores on a measure of aggressive and violent attitudes. These results support the efficacy of the SCARE program, suggesting it is a useful prevention and intervention tool for addressing violence and aggression in young people.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
