In this brief report we describe the development of a measure of anger that may be used by nurses and other professionals to assess anger and changes in anger with male offenders. The Short Anger Measure, a 12-item self-report measure of angry feelings and aggressive impulses, was administered to 73 male offenders. The measure showed sound psychometric properties (internal consistency reliability, test-retest reliability) and concurrent validity with an established measure of anger. The potential use of the measure by nurses working in forensic settings is discussed.
在本简要报告中，我们描述了一种愤怒测量方法的开发情况，护士和其他专业人员可使用该方法来评估男性罪犯的愤怒情绪及其变化。对73名男性罪犯施行了简短愤怒量表，这是一种由12个项目组成的关于愤怒情绪和攻击冲动的自我报告量表。该量表显示出良好的心理测量特性（内部一致性信度、重测信度）以及与一种既定愤怒测量方法的同时效度。文中还讨论了该量表在法医环境中工作的护士的潜在用途。
