About this test
Volcano, slow burn, stuffer or cold front — your anger has a shape, even if you've never named it. 16 honest questions surface the one that actually leads. Most people use a mix; you'll find out which one runs the show.
Methodology
16 self-report items (4 per pattern) on a 5-point Likert scale. Inspired by Spielberger's STAXI dimensions of anger expression. Independent reformulation, not the official instrument.
Possible archetypes
- Volcano · 0 to 100, instantly
- You go zero to nuclear in one sentence and everyone in the room remembers it.
- Slow Burn · Six-week list
- You stockpile six weeks of grievances, then unload in one sentence.
- Stuffer · Body pays the bill
- You don't get angry, you get a stomachache. Your body keeps the score.
- Cold Front · Weaponised silence
- Your anger isn't a yell — it's a closed door for three days. They feel it.

How is it scored?
