State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory Scores of Male Sexual OffendersCommunity Youth Network, 18640 West Belvidre Road, Grayslake, Illinois 60030, U.S.A.
P.O. Box 0855, Grayslake Illinois 60030, U.S.A.
Outagamie County Health and Human Services, 401 South Elm Street, Appleton, Wisconsin 54911, U.S.A. The State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI) was administered to 137 male sexual offenders. The sample was heterogeneous regarding the type of sexual offense. With the exception of slightly higher-state anger at the time of testing, scores of this group were very similar to those of "normal" men. T-score conversions for the raw scores of male sexual offenders were tabulated. The STAXI can be used to identify offenders with higher levels of anger and aggression. This may provide a useful screening instrument in that prior research has shown that offenders with higher anger also show greater psychopathology.
