Treatment of Anger in Diff erent Populations: Common and Unique Factors 255 Ephrem Fernandez Author Index 267 Subject Index 287 PREFACE Anger has been viewed as a motivating force to be harnessed as well as the most destructive of all emotions and the bane of human relations. Th is book acknowl- edges the functional signifi cance of anger but focuses on anger that is dysfunc- tional. Such anger is particularly manifest in certain clinical populations and it crosses the boundaries of gender, age, and ethnicity. Th erefore, anger treatments can be examined in the context of the population of interest, and that is how the chapters in this volume are organized. My foray into the fi eld of anger began 18 years ago with a publication on the relationship between anger and pain. I was struck by the unmistakable quality that is anger, by its ubiquity and its adverse repercussions, and yet equally struck by its lack of representation in psychiatric nosology. At that time, signifi cant inroads had already been made into the fi eld of anger treatment, and I am pleased that many of the pioneers then have contributed to the present volume. Further, I am encour- aged by the emergence of new experts, many of whom have also become a part of this project. Th e collective eff orts of 29 authors went into making the 14 chapters of this volume. Each chapter underwent peer review not only by me but also by another expert from the contributing team. Th e journey has been an adventure in intellec- tual exchange, planning, organization, and creative problem solving— appropriately punctuated by moments of banter and healthy digression. Th e end result is original in presenting anger treatments population by popula- tion and then extracting what is common across treatments and what is uniquely tailored to particular groups of clients. Th e product is also intended to be clinically useful by virtue of describing the “how to” of anger regulation techniques and illus- trating them with reference to case studies. We have been decidedly evidence-based in this book but without ignoring the new wave of ideas for enhancement of this enterprise. Th erefore, a framework is also put in place to allow for further innova- tion and integration of anger treatments. I thank my assistants, Nikki Prins, Alex Fields, and Salvador Macias for checking citations against references, indexing, and attention to format. Over the years, numer- ous students have worked in my Sensation & Emotion Lab at Southern Methodist University and University of Texas at San Antonio; they deserve credit for having interviewed thousands of people in a variety of fi eld settings from public libraries and college campuses to parole centers and jails, and for having administered psy- chometric tests of anger.
