N2  - The purpose of the present study was to test a proposed model of road rage based on the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder's (DSM-IV) framework for impulse control disorders. The participants were 85 female and 44 male undergraduate psychology students. Subjects completed a questionnaire consisting of several scales: the Aggressive Driving Scale, the Driving Behavior Inventory, the Driving Expectancy Questionnaire, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale Version 11, the Anger Factor of the Aggression Questionnaire, the Risk of Eruptive Violence Scale, and the Negative Cognitions Scale. Regression analyses indicate gender differences in road rage, as hypothesized model appears accurate for women, but not for men. Results suggest that it is reasonable to attempt to understand road rage through an impulse control disorder framework, but that impulse control disorders may be different phenomena for men and women.
