      abstract = {This paper examines contemporary evidence-based approaches to anger management within psychological practice, synthesizing current research and clinical applications. The investigation explores the theoretical foundations of anger as an emotional and behavioral phenomenon, reviewing cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and neurobiological perspectives that inform modern treatment protocols. Through analysis of peer-reviewed literature and clinical case studies, this paper identifies effective assessment methodologies and intervention strategies that demonstrate empirical support across diverse populations. Key findings indicate that multimodal approaches combining cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation techniques, and skills training yield optimal outcomes when tailored to individual client needs and cultural contexts. The paper further examines emerging technological interventions and highlights areas warranting additional research. Implications for psychological education and clinical practice suggest the importance of integrating these evidence-based approaches into university curricula and treatment planning to address the significant personal and societal impacts of maladaptive anger. This review contributes to the scholarly discourse by providing a comprehensive yet concise framework for understanding and addressing anger management from both theoretical and practical perspectives.},
