    In my psychology class, I was given a paper for judging how how comfortable I was with anger. I will type out the paper below so that you my find your discomfort (or comfort) on the Anger Discomfort Scale (ADS).
    (Some things were slightly changed to fix typos.)

    Purpose: to consider your attitude towards anger. Are you a willing expresser of anger or would prefer not to feel angry? Also, consider how your discomfort compares with those of the average undergraduate student.

    Respond to the following statements using this scale.

    1 = almost never
    2 = sometimes
    3 = often
    4 = almost always


    1. I dislike being or feeling angry.
    2. I feel quality about being angry at others.
    3. I fear that my anger will hurt other people.
    4. I dislike people seeing me when I am angry.

    5. I believe it is natural and healthy to feel angry.
    6. I am troubled by my anger.
    7. People dislike seeing me when I am angry.
    8. I create more problems for myself when I am angry.
    9. I feel that I should be angry less frequently.

    10. I believe that it is acceptable for people to feel anger.
    11. I feel comfortable with my angry feelings.

    12. When I get angry, I get nervous.
    13. My anger scares me.
    14. I am embarrassed when I get angry.
    15. I fear losing control because of my anger.

    Scoring: Reverse the scores for #5, 10 and 11. Add up all scores. Scores should range from 15-60. The closer the score is to 60, the more discomfort with anger.

    Reverse of the numbers:
    1=4
    2=3

    DO NOT READ COMPARISON UNTIL SCORE HAS BEEN MADE.
    The average undergraduate student score is 30.6.


    My score (Again, do not reed until you have at least found the numbers for each of the questions).
    This will be done by listing the scores for each in order.
    2

    I reverse the answers for #5, 10 and 11. After those three have been added, I then add every number together, like this:
    2+4+1+4+
    3+3+4+2+3+3+3+1+3+1+4

    My result: 51
    Highly uncomfortable.
