Testing Services for Anger:
1. Dr. Bedell and Dr. Casto offer individual testing using the: Novaco Anger Scale and Provocation Inventory (NAS‑PI) by Raymond W. Novaco, Ph.D.  The NAS-PI helps clinicians and researchers evaluate the role of anger in various psychological and physical conditions. 
This questionnaire is an excellent way to assess anger in clinical, community, and correctional settings.
The NAS‑PI is composed of two parts: The Novaco Anger Scale (60 items), which tells how an individual experiences anger; and the Provocation Inventory (25 items), which identifies the kind of situations that induce anger in particular individuals. The entire questionnaire can be completed in just 25 minutes by anyone who can read at a fourth-grade level. (It can also be administered to clients who are mentally disordered or developmentally delayed, though items may have to be read to these individuals.) This and most other tests are offered through the internet.

Cost is just: $100.00 per test. You may order this inventory test for yourself or counselors may order for their clients. Pre-payments are made to CounselCare Connection through PayPal below.
