The objective of this research was to know the differences in anger levels in athletes and physical activity practitioners with high and low levels of authoritarian fathers and mothers. The sample consisted of 502 Spanish athletes and physical practitioners with an age range between 18 and 64 years old (M = 27.76, SD = 9.11). To measure the different variables were used, an ad hoc sociodemographic questionnaire, the Multifactor Self-Assessment Test of Child Adjustment (TAMAI), the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory (STAXI-II) and the Oviedo Scale of Infrequency Response (INF-OV). The results showed greater anger levels (p < .05), temperament (p < .01), internal anger expression (p < .01), and anger expression index (p < .05) in the group of authoritarian mother athletes and physical practitioners. On the other hand, the results showed greater levels of trait anger (p < .01), temperament (p < .01), anger reaction (p < .01), external anger expression (p < .01) and anger expression index (p < .01), in athletes and physical practitioners with high authoritarian father group. Regression analysis showed that a greater external anger expression is more likely to have a greater authoritarian father (OR = 1.12; p < .01) and greater authoritarian mother (OR = 1.20; p < .01). It was concluded that authoritarian fathers and authoritarian mothers influence the athlete´s anger levels. On the other hand, fathers with low authoritarian levels showed greater anger external control on athletes and physical practitioners.
