Br J Clin Psychol. 1988 Sep;27(3):279-81. doi: 10.1111/j.2044-8260.1988.tb00792.x.

Abstract

Some general population norms for the Spielberger, Johnson et al. (1984) Anger Expression Scale (AX) are reported for a sample of over 1000 adults tested in a general health survey of a New Zealand community. Factor analysis confirmed the independence of the Anger/In and Anger/Out subscales, and the measure was found to have satisfactory levels of reliability.
