Abstract: Abstract of thesis entitled Anger Coping Training (ACT) Program With Physically Aggressive Children: A Treatment Outcome Study Submitted by FUNG Lai-chu, Annis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in June 2004 Numerous studies have linked aggression during childhood with long-term maladjustments and anti-social behavior. Despite the alarming rise of aggression and violence in Hong Kong, there has been no evidence-based outcome study on anger control intervention. Aggression hinders development in the child and creates numerous problems in the family, school and community. The researcher reviewed the etiology of childhood aggression from the ecosystemic model, and implemented an indigenous Anger Coping Training (ACT) program for children aged 8-10 with physically aggressive behavior and their parents. Based on cognitive-behavioral therapy, the parent-child parallel group ACT program aimed to help reactively aggressive children in restructuring cognitive characteristics, reducing hostile attributional bias, increasing anger coping methods, and enhancing problem-solving abilities. In addition, the program sought to assist in developing parenting skills and styles in order to manage children's aggressive behaviors effectively, and decrease parental stress from dealing with aggressive children. This research program involved experimental and control groups with pre- and post- comparison using a mixed model research method. Qualitative data collection of the children's behavior, as well as the parenting styles and behaviors were assessed through structured interviews (children, parents and teachers); peer interactions; and the utilization of hypothetical scenarios. Quantitative data collection consisted of the completion of reliable self-report questionnaires, the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) and Parent Stress Index (PSI), and the Child Behavior Checklist Teacher's Report Form (CBCL-TRF). Two pilot studies and the main study were conducted in cooperation with a professional team at St. James Settlement, which consisted of two social workers who served as facilitators of the parent and child groups. 18 out of 34 applicants were selected and divided between two experimental groups and one control group in accordance with the rule of randomization. There were no significant differences in the pre-treatment scores, and none of the demographic variables were statistically different among those three groups. Evidence demonstrated that the randomization in this study was effective. The effectiveness of the ACT program has been consistently verified. In post- intervention and follow-up studies the treated children showed a consistent reduction in their physically aggressive behavior; however, there was no obvious decline in their verbally aggressive behavior. Furthermore, findings showed that physical and verbal pro-social behaviors were increased in treated children. In conclusion, the ACT program was effective in lessening children's physically aggressive behavior, but not verbal aggression. For the parent component, the results of the PSI indicated that the ACT program was ineffective in reducing parental stress. The qualitative results showed evidence of changes in the children's cognitive characteristics, behavioral presentations, and affective reactions t

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drop the Rope in Your Tug-of-War with Anger If you've tried to control problem anger before with little success, this book offers you a fundamentally new approach and new hope. Instead of struggling even harder to manage or eliminate your anger, you can stop anger feelings from determining who you are and how you live your life. Based on a revolutionary psychological approach called acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), the techniques in ACT on Life Not on Anger can help you let go of anger and start living your life to the fullest. Your path begins as you learn to accept your angry feelings as they occur, without judging or trying to manage them. Then, using techniques based in mindfulness practice, you'll discover how to observe your feelings of anger without acting on them. Value-identification exercises help you figure out what truly matters to you so that you can commit to short- and long-term goals that turn your values into reality. In the process, anger will lose power over your life-and, amazingly, you'll gain control over your life by simply letting go of your angry feelings.

Download or read book Anger Management Types I and II written by Steven T. Griggs, Ph.D. and published by Steven T. Griggs, Ph.D., A Psychological Corporation. This book was released on 2018-06-17 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I’ve been a practicing psychologist in an outpatient setting for over thirty-two years. I run into the same conditions or "issues" almost every day (addictions, anxiety, ADHD/learning disabilities, assertiveness, children’s behaviors, mood disorders, relationships and self-esteem). Anger management is important unto itself, but plays a very strong role in the other areas. Usually, when people can control their anger, the problems in each of these groups diminish. Anger management is a skill that everyone needs and uses to some degree, in just about every situation. This webpage contains information about my ebook on this subject, anger management techniques, anger management tips and anger management training. It turns out anger management can be taught to almost everyone. I’ve taught it to children, as well as adults. I’ve taught techniques to schizophrenics and to people with out-of-control mood disorders. Anyone can learn about this subject and anyone can learn to manage anger. You may be having trouble in your relationship, or blowing up at work. You may be referred by the courts, which happens if your anger leads to excessive drinking or fighting, custody issues, etc.. I’ve read most of the pop-psychology literature on anger management over the last 30 (+) years. Many of the books are excellent. They, like this ebook deal with a variety of anger management aspects. Anger has to do with being out of control of reactions, or about being out of touch with feelings. Type I anger people "lose it" and act out. Type II anger people lose it and "act in." Type I anger people explode, while Type II anger people implode. There are characteristics and symptoms of each, which I list and explore. Type II anger is a NEW concept. You won't find this described anywhere else, because its my original idea. People have a long list of reasons not to control their anger, which is addressed. There are lots of popular or other internet sources for anger management techniques. I list them. These work, sort of, and if they work for you--good. Your anger problem is not that serious. But there are deeper, psychological approaches that fix, not mollify the problem. To effectively manage anger (either Type I or Type II), one has to get to the "deep stuff." Most of the pop-psychology books are too long. I’ve boiled down the concepts in these books into clear, manageable steps. I’ve made this as easy to understand as is humanly possible, combining what I’ve read with what I’ve learned from clients. Plus, there is a discussion on the newest ways to conceptualize anger mismanagement, relative not just to psychology, but to cognitive behavioral techniques and mindfulness. Like my other ebooks, this one has no fat. Think of it as a "Cliffs Notes" publication. It's "sort of" a quick read (about an hour or two). I have to explain a few new terms, because there are new ideas and the terms you probably already know are put together in new ways. The theory I espouse is different from standard "behavior change" books. It works better and is very simple to understand. That's the point of an ebook. My research has not turned up another ebook that does what mine does.

Download or read book A Course in Anger Transformation written by Jose M. Baltazar, PhD and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to offer an effective alternative for managing anger and transforming it into a more productive energy and behavior. Most programs in existence are based on cognitive approaches, which although effective, require much effort and persistence and a longer period of time to exercise control over the emotion of anger. The foundations of the program in this book are relaxation, meditation, and accelerative learning skills. These techniques have been proven to facilitate change with less effort and struggle because they work at the subconscious level. Change and transformation occur more naturally and organically by removing the conscious thinking that change is difficult to achieve and that it requires hard work.

Download or read book Acceptance And Commitment Therapy written by Jon Power and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-22 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you looking for a new method for accepting yourself? Then Keep reading... It is normal for people to suffer. However, suffering is not just about physical or psychological pain. People also suffer from difficult self-assessments, uncomfortable feelings, and painful memories. Because we dread or worry about suffering, we do everything to avoid them. We want to minimize our suffering. Many of us give importance to feeling better. But a good life is a lot more than just the absence of suffering. We want to live a good life and we want to make the best of our short stay on this planet. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is focused on the problem of human suffering, but also beyond that. It is also about understanding human suffering as an important factor in realizing a good life. This new form of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy CBT is focused on important questions such as "What is my real purpose in life?" But before we delve deeper into ACT as a specific CBT technique, let us first understand human suffering. This book covers the following topics: Understanding Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Strategies for Relief from Anxiety and to Improve Your Quality of Life ACT in Practice How to Deal Depression with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy The Six Core Processes of ACT Master you emotions Mindfulness The key to control emotions WHAT IMPACT YOUR EMOTIONS? Stress Reduction Techniques You Need to Learn ACT: targeting language to increase psychological flexibility ACT and You And much more... For pets, perhaps a cat or a dog, happiness is pretty much easier to achieve. If their basic needs are provided - food, water, shelter, warmth, and fun - they will be happy. With the absence of human intervention, pets usually miss some of these fundamental needs. They live their lives as mere animals. In comparison, humans may also miss fundamental needs, too. It can be easy to understand how miserable a person can get when these needs aren't met. However, many of us have all the things that some people are happy to have, but we are still not happy. With our modern wonders - technology, supermarkets, real estate - we are entertained, well fed, and protected from cold or heat. But still, many of us are still miserable. We still hear stories about billionaires on their prime committing suicide. There are celebrities who have already achieved wealth and fame but still sulk in the corner then drink alcohol or take drugs. It seems that our lives naturally come with suffering. Physical pain has distinct psychological (mind) and physiological (body) components that manifest response and stimulus. The biological aspect of pain refers to the signal that is transmitted to our brain so we are aware that something is wrong. The resolve to recover from chronic pain is distinct between the actual pain and suffering. It is also then focused on achieving comfort. While we cannot avoid pain, we can surely do something about our response to suffering, pretty much like how we can respond to anger. Do you want to learn more? Don't wait anymore!
