“…Dentre os inúmeros instrumentos disponíveis para verificação destes aspectos da personalidade, o STAXI (Inventário de expressão de raiva traço-estado) fornece um método para estudo dos componentes da raiva, podendo auxiliar na avaliação detalhada de personalidade (Spielberger & Biaggio, 1992). Para medir a raiva é necessário um bom conhecimento da intensidade dos sentimentos que a compõem, em conjunto com as situações em que ocorrem, a freqüência com que o indivíduo os experencia e o modo pelo qual os regula (Silva, Campos & Prazeres, 1999 Segundo o Manual do STAXI adaptado para o Brasil (Spielberger & Biaggio, 1992), a definição de raiva seria: estado emocional que abrange sentimentos que variam desde aborrecimento leve até fúria e cólera intensas, acompanhado por estimulação do sistema nervoso autônomo. Enquanto raiva (e o que se chama de hostilidade) refere-se a sentimentos e atitudes, o conceito de agressão seria usado quando se faz referência a comportamentos destrutivos e punitivos.…”

RESUMO. Este estudo buscou ampliar o conhecimento sobre a elaboração da impulsividade agressiva, através de seu componente raiva, na adolescência contemporânea. Foram avaliados 120 adolescentes de ambos os sexos, de 15 a 19 anos, de escolas públicas e particulares de Ribeirão Preto (SP), sem história prévia de transtornos sensoriais, cognitivos e/ou psiquiátricos. Foram utilizados o INV-Forma C e o Inventário de Expressão da Raiva Traço Estado (STAXI), focalizando-se, neste trabalho, apenas os resultados do STAXI. Houve diferenças significativas (teste Kruskal-Wallis e teste Mann-Withney) no nível de expressão de raiva dos adolescentes em função do sexo, nas escalas de "Raiva para Fora" e "Reação de "Raiva" do STAXI, onde meninos tiveram índices mais elevados que meninas. O desempenho nessa técnica não variou significativamente em função do nível socioeconômico. Estes resultados apontaram interferência do sexo na forma de os adolescentes vivenciarem e expressarem seus sentimentos de raiva, a partir dos indicadores do STAXI.

“…For evaluation of the psychological variables, we applied the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) ( Zigmond & Snaith, 1983 ; Pais-Ribeiro et al, 2007 ), and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) ( Spielberger, 1988 ; Silva, Campos & Prazeres, 1999 ).…”

“…The State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) is a 44-item inventory, divided into six scales and two subscales, which assess anger experience, expression and control ( Spielberger, 1988 ; Silva, Campos & Prazeres, 1999 ). STAXI is comprised of (1) State Anger (S-Anger), which measures the intensity of anger feelings at a giving time; (2) Trait Anger (T-Anger) which measures the differences between individuals in the frequency and disposition for experiencing anger states, including two subscales: (a) Angry-temperament (T-Anger/T), which evaluates the general propensity for experiencing and expressing anger feelings with no specific provocation; and (b) Angry Reaction (T-Anger/R) which gauges the differences in anger expression between individuals when criticized or unfairly treated; 3) Anger-in (AX/In), which assesses the frequency with which anger feelings are repressed; 4) Anger-out (AX/ Out), which assesses how frequently anger is directed towards other people and objects; 5) Anger Control (AX/ Con), which assesses the frequency with which the individual tries to control the expression of his/her anger; and 6) Anger Expression (AX/EX), which indicates the frequency with which anger is expressed, regardless of how it is expressed.…”

Background Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. Psychological morbidity has an important impact on quality of life and major clinical outcomes. Several data have shown that the immune system may be a key player on the relation between psychological features and cancer outcomes. Natural Killer (NK) cells have been shown to be influenced by psychological factors. The aim of this investigation was to assess the impact of anxiety, depression, and anger state, trait, and expression on the immune response, particularly, their effect on NK cells and CD8+ T cells in surgical colorectal cancer patients. Methods We studied 54 surgical colorectal cancer patients and assessed patients pre-surgically, post-surgically, and 12 months after surgery (follow-up). We applied the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory and measured peripheral T cells, CD8+ T cells, and NK cells. We did a cross-sectional analysis as well as a longitudinal assessment of the variables during the follow-up period. Results Pre-surgical assessment: Trait anger, angry reaction, and anger-out had a significant negative correlation with NK cells. The lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical anxiety or depression. Post-surgical assessment: Patients without clinical anxiety had higher levels of T cells. Angry reaction was negatively correlated with NK cells. Lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical depression. Follow-up assessment: Patients without clinical depression had higher T cell counts. Trait anger and angry reaction were negatively correlated with the levels of NK cells. The lymphocytes values were unaffected by the presence of clinical anxiety. Longitudinal assessment: Angry-temperament, anger expression, and anger-in reduced significantly from the first to the second assessment. Anxiety, state anger, and trait anger significantly diminished from the pre-surgical to the follow-up assessment. Depression levels did not alter during the follow-up period. The lymphocyte count, and particularly T cells and CD8+ T cells, was significantly higher in the follow-up when compared with the pre-surgical assessment. Conclusion Our study suggests the existence of a relation between psychological response and immune response in colorectal cancer patients. We identified the importance of emotional regulation as a potential modulator for NK cell counts. Higher values of propensity to experience anger states and express them outwards seem to be associated with lower NK cell counts.

“…The second study, following the previous one, aimed to evaluate the efficacy of GPS in reducing anger, paranoia, and shame. Compared to the control group (CG), the final scores of the MB's participants in the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory 2 (STAXI-2; Spielberger, 1991; Portuguese version from Silva et al, 1999), used to evaluate the expression of anger, state (e.g., "I am furious"), Gouveia, 2010) was used to evaluate the external shame (e.g., "other people seem me as small and insignificant"). The results suggest that, among the MBs' participants who compiled the entire protocol, over time, anger control increased (p < .001).…”

Beliefs that are too rigid and misadjusted may legitimize interpersonal relationships marked by verbal, physical, or sexual violence. A systematic literature review was performed to identify the existence of maladaptive beliefs (MBs) in interpersonal relationships of young adults and their association with problematic behaviors. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, studies were obtained through a search in multiple databases: EBSCOhost, PubMed, and Web of Science. Of the 1,280 articles retrieved, 42 were retained for further analysis and 15 were considered eligible for inclusion. In addition, seven studies were added through manual search, leading to a final sample of 15 articles, published between 1964 and 2021. Only empirical studies with quantitative methodologies were included. Objectives, sample (age in years), sample type, country of origin of studies, instruments, control group, and results and main conclusions were extracted from each study. Results suggest the existence of MBs that may legitimize antisocial behavior and violence, whether physical, sexual, gender, domestic, or in intimate relationships. Some intervention programs were also identified, with different approaches with a reasonable degree of efficacy in changing these beliefs or in reducing the rates of recidivism by the aggressors.
