Adult Scale of Hostility and Aggression: Reactive/Proactive

Adult Scale of Hostility and Aggression: Reactive/Proactive

The Adult Scale of Hostility and Aggression: Reactive/Proactive (A-SHARP) is an instrument for assessing aggressive and hostile behavior in adults. There are five subscales: (1) Verbal Aggression, (2) Physical Aggression, (3) Hostile Affect, (4) Covert Aggression, and (5) Bullying. Two dimensions are measured: (1) the severity and/or frequency of the behaviors in question, and (2) the degree to which the behavior is thought to be instrumental/proactive or reactive.
