A 50-item self-rating scale, the Getting Along Scale (GAS), was developed in order to provide information that would (a) identify offenders who might be physically dangerous, (b) identify offenders who might cause psychological harm to others whose living or working environment they shared, and (c) contribute to the development of treatment programs for violent or abusive offenders. The items represent a range of positive and negative tactics used in conflict situations. The scale examines the use of these tactics in conflict with strangers and known persons.
