Abstract
Anger appears to be a particularly important emotion in correctional settings with violent offenders. Anger problems have been linked with prison adjustment, disciplinary problems, assaults, and violence. Whilst it has been established that violent offences are not necessarily angry offences, it has been argued that poor anger control often plays a role in violent offending and can be considered a criminogenic need for many violent offenders. Also, anger can be used as a risk factor for the prediction of violence. Anger management programs for violent offenders usually use cognitive behavior approaches, but they specifically focus on controlling anger and often include relaxation techniques, visualization, deep breathing exercises, social skill training, impulse control, and problem solving skills. In addition, cognitive behavior therapy helps violent offenders to express their anger in an appropriate and acceptable way in different circumstances
