Introduction:
Among the innumerable possibilities that an individual has to experience and express anger, it is not rare that the feeling gets out of control and ends up in hostility and aggressions, which can lead to important consequences in a person’s life and others around. Given this, it is fundamental to apply techniques which are proven effective, aiming at a higher quality of life for the individual and for people who live with them. Objectives: To identify the main techniques for anger management in adults. Method: Systematic review of scientific papers from clinical trials. Results: Nine randomized clinical trials using psychological techniques for anger management were used in the present analysis. CognitiveBehavioral Therapy was shown to be predominant in the analyzed interventions and proved to be effective in controlling anger. Conclusion: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, especially psychoeducation and cognitive restructuring, are the most frequently used techniques for anger management in several clinical groups of patients, with positive results in emotional regulation.
