Novaco Anger Scale and Provocation Inventory (NAS-PI) <show description>
The NAS–PI helps clinicians and researchers evaluate the role of anger in various psychological and physical conditions. Brief and easy-to-administer, this self-report questionnaire is an excellent way to assess anger in clinical, community, and correctional settings.
The NAS–PI is composed of two parts: The Novaco Anger Scale (60 items), which tells you how an individual experiences anger; and the Provocation Inventory (25 items), which identifies the kind of situations that induce anger in particular individuals. The entire questionnaire can be completed in just 25 minutes by anyone who can read at a fourth-grade level. It can also be administered to clients who are mentally disordered or developmentally delayed.
The NAS–PI can be administered as a whole, or the two parts can be used independently. It can be hand or computer scored. Normative data are based on an age-stratified sample of 1,546 individuals, from 9 to 84 years of age. Separate norms are provided for preadolescents and adolescents (9 to 18) and adults (19 and older).
