Reviews
“Dr. McKinnie Burney’s research contributes to our understanding of two types of anger [instrumental and reactive], the implications for treatment, and the relationship between anger and other disorders. But what practitioners and researchers will find most helpful is the Adolescent Anger Rating Scale, an anger assessment instrument [the author] developed to measure the intensity and frequency of anger expression in adolescents.”
–David S. Wheeler, Ph.D., School Psychology State Consultant, Student Support Services Project/USF, Bureau of Exceptional Education and Student Services
