Abstract :

The aim of present study was investigating the impact of social problem solving training on reducing anger among adolescent students. This research was a quasi-experimental type with a pre-test-post-test design and follow-up with a control group. 30 teenage students were selected by purposive sampling method and randomly assigned to two experimental and control groups (15 people in the experimental group and 15 people in the control group). The social problem solving training program D’Zurilla and Nezu(2007) was implemented in 10 one-hour sessions on the experimental group. Then, the level of anger of the participants was measured in the pre-test-post-test-follow-up phases using with multidimensional student anger questionnaire (Smith, Furlong, Bates, Laughlin, 1998). The research data was analyzed through the method of mixed repeated measure. The results showed that the average scores of the participants in anger and its subscales in the post-test stage compared to the pre-test stage in the experience of anger, positive coping and hostile attitude had a significant difference, but there was no significant difference in the destructive coping subscale. Also, there was no significant change between the post-test and follow-up scores in all the anger subscales of the students in the experimental group, which indicated the significant persistence of the changes resulting from the social problem solving training in the follow-up phase. The findings of this research showed that social problem solving training has been effective in reducing the anger of adolescent students.
