Abstract: This study was carried out to examine the relationship between spirituality, social desirability, and anger control among university students. A correlational study design was used. A total of 281 sample was recruited using a non-probability purposive sampling including males (n = 132) and females (n=149) university students. Standardized assessments were used to collect the data. Pearson Product moment correlation, independent sample t-test, and multiple regression analysis were used for inferential statistics. It was found that spirituality and social desirability had a significant positive relationship with anger control among university students and spirituality and social desirability are positive predictors of anger control among university students. The study also explored gender differences and results showed that females scored higher in spirituality compared to males, while males scored higher in anger control compared to females. No gender differences were found in social desirability. These findings have significant implications for developing interventions aimed at enhancing anger control among university students.
