An Exploratory Study of Two Intervention Programs for Anger Management for Teens.

The general aim of the proposed pilot study is to evaluate the the efficacy of mind-body
bridging (MBB) for anger management compared with the Real Deal anger management program, in
helping adolescents control or reduce their anger.

In this pilot randomized-controlled study, we evaluate the effects of MBB as compared with
an established anger management program (Real Deal), in helping youth prone to anger develop
tools to effectively reduce and control their anger, and potentially reduce other negative
emotions and feelings that might be associated with their anger.

Inclusion Criteria:

- English-speaking

- self-, or allo-referred (parents, peers, court-ordered, school, etc.), based on their
propensity for displaying various disruptive, externalizing behaviors, including,
anger, hostility, oppositional behavior, and temper outbursts, and as such identified
by Youth Services (YS) as a suitable candidate to attend a YS anger management
program.

Exclusion Criteria:

- none
