Levels of anxiety and hostility in South African Navy divers.

This study aimed to describe the levels of anxiety and hostility in a group of 45 SA Navy divers, by analysing their scores on an Anxiety Scale and Hostility and Directed Hostility Questionnaire. Results indicate that divers experience average anxiety compared with the norm groups. They have a higher urge for acting out their hostility, and are more critical of others than the norm group.
