To develop a new and original scale which can measure anger on a multidimensional level.
In the first phase of this study, 2 pilot studies were conducted. The first pilot study was conducted on a sample of 60 individuals to develop an item pool. A second pilot study was conducted with another group of 148 individuals using a 429 item scale that was developed from this item pool. After the item analyses, a 158 item 'Multidimensional Anger Scale' (MAS) was derived for use in the second phase of the study to investigate the psychometric properties of the instrument. In the second phase reliability and validity analyses of this scale with 5 dimensions, Anger symptoms, Anger eliciting situations, Anger related cognitions, Anger reactions and Interpersonal Anger, were conducted on a sample of 756 individuals.
Psychometric analysis of the scale showed that it possessed adequate internal consistency (alpha coefficients between 0,64 and 0,95). The validity of the scale was supported by the expected pattern of relations with other inventories (Brief Symptom Inventory and Guilt and Shame Scale).
Multidimensional Anger Scale, for Turkish culture, may be suggested as a valid and reliable scale to measure anger in different dimensions.
开发一种全新的、原创的量表，能够从多维层面测量愤怒情绪。
在本研究的第一阶段，进行了两项预试验研究。第一项预试验研究以60名个体为样本，用于建立项目库。第二项预试验研究使用从该项目库中开发的包含429个项目的量表，对另一组148名个体进行。经过项目分析，得出了一个包含158个项目的“多维愤怒量表”（MAS），用于研究的第二阶段，以考察该工具的心理测量特性。在第二阶段，对756名个体的样本进行了该量表五个维度（愤怒症状、愤怒诱发情境、愤怒相关认知、愤怒反应和人际愤怒）的信效度分析。
该量表的心理测量分析表明，它具有足够的内部一致性（α系数在0.64至0.95之间）。该量表的效度得到了与其他量表（简明症状量表、内疚与羞耻量表）预期关系模式的支持。
对于土耳其文化而言，多维愤怒量表可被推荐为一种在不同维度测量愤怒的有效且可靠的量表。
