Participants were asked to complete two measures of Multidimensional Anger Inventory and Parent’s Anger Evaluation Scale. To analyze the data, statistical indices including mean, standard deviation, pearson correlation coefficient, regression analysis, and F ratio were used. The results of the study indicated that emotional oriented coping and religious oriented strategies significantly correlated with anger reduction.
