Police psychology is primarily interested in the analysis of behavior of policemen. Anger is a characteristic of behavior and police have to be aggressive and angry due the nature of their job and work. The purpose of the study was to compare the anger between PAC and Civil Police in Uttar Pradesh in India. Thirty two (32) PAC and thirty two (32) Civil Police constables were selected as participants of this study. The age range of the participants was 24-59 years. The anger was measured by a Hindi version of Spielberger's (1999) anger scale. Results showed that there was significant difference between PAC and Civil Police with regard to anger. Results also show that PAC personnel had higher levels of anger as compared to Civil Police. Police anger and aggression can be used against criminal, terrorists and wrong doers and it can be used as a manipulation strategy for social influence by police.Keywords
