Abstract

College students with high and low trait anger completed an observational assessment of their “getting acquainted” skills and a questionnaire assessment of their general social skills. Observational results indicated that students in the high trait anger group displayed greater negative affectivity. Questionnaire results indicated that the high trait anger group had higher emotional expressivity and social sensitivity scores. Further, questionnaire results indicted that women had higher scores on subscales measuring emotional expressivity and emotional sensitivity. Implications of findings are discussed in terms of suggestions for social skills training in anger management programs.1
