Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

Fear is an emotional response to a threat. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain or the threat of danger. Some psychologists such as John B. Watson, Robert Plutchik, and Paul Ekman have suggested that fear is one of a small set of basic or innate emotions. This set also includes such emotions as joy, sadness, and anger. Fear should be distinguished from the related emotional state of anxiety, which typically occurs without any external threat. Additionally, fear is related to the specific behaviors of escape and avoidance, whereas anxiety is the result of threats which are perceived to be uncontrollable or unavoidable.[1] Worth noting is that fear always relates to future events, such as worsening of a situation, or continuation of a situation that is unacceptable.

The Old English term fear meant not the emotion engendered by a calamity or disaster, but rather the event itself. The first recorded usage of the term "fear" with the sense of the “emotion of fear” is found in a medieval work written in Middle English, composed circa 1290. The most probable explanation for the change in the meaning of the word "fear" is the existence in Old English of the related verb frighten, which meant “to terrify, take by surprise”.[2]

A vivid description of fear was provided by Charles Darwin in his book, The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals

The facial expression of fear includes the widening of the eyes (out of anticipation for what will happen next); the pupils dilate (to take in more light); the upper lip rises, the brows draw together, and the lips stretch horizontally. The physiological effects of fear can be better understood from the perspective of the sympathetic nervous responses (fight-or-flight), as compared to the parasympathetic response, which is a more relaxed state. Muscles used for physical movement are tightened and primed with oxygen, in preparation for a physical fight-or-flight response. Perspiration occurs due to blood being shunted from body's viscera to the peripheral parts of the body. Blood that is shunted from the viscera to the rest of the body will transfer, along with oxygen and nutrients, heat, prompting perspiration to cool the body. When the stimulus is shocking or abrupt, a common reaction is to cover (or otherwise protect) vulnerable parts of the anatomy, particularly the face and head. When a fear stimulus occurs unexpectedly, the victim of the fear response could possibly jump or give a small start. The person's heart-rate and heartbeat may quicken.

2. Failure 2.0
November 06, 2009

Many times our fear of failure shows up as perfectionism. Many of my clients want everything to be perfect before they release anything to the public. While on the surface this seems like a high professional standard it is actually quite unrealistic, and holds you back from moving forward as fast as you can. So what are you to do? Unless you are a surgeon or launching the space shuttle, having something less than absolutely perfect will not harm anyone. In fact, marketing and business are better when you take some risks and see what works best. The most famous and richest failure you... (read more)

7. How Come People Feel Fear
November 06, 2009

People will either go out of their way to find it and revel in the fact that they're being terrified out of their skulls. Or they'll do whatever it takes to avoid it the way someone with social anxiety avoids parties. Fear is a natural part of the human psyche and has often been cited by philosophers as being among the greatest internal motivators of the human spirit. However, despite the fact that we have extensive knowledge of what terrifies people and how fear can play a game with someone's mental health, we have barely any idea how, exactly, does fear work in the human mind. Modern sc... (read more)

13. Best Horror Movie List

No matter how much we fear, we keep coming back for more. Moviegoers for over a century now have become increasingly demanding, and moviemakers have never stopped stretching the possibilities of visual entertainment. There are two reasons why the cinema screen is so big, explained one movie critic. One: it’s because there’s a lot of people watching it. Second: it’s to put each individual into movie itself, as if he were wearing a pair of virtual reality goggles and it was him in the lead role. Imagine if this technology were applied to the horror genre. Imagine putting yourself in the lea... (read more)

15. Professional Contractor Resource: Addressing Customer Fears

It is important to consider the psychology behind how prospective customers select a contractor. If you have a better understanding of your potential client and how they approach the decision making process, you are better equipped to attract their business. My research in this area points to an over-arching theme of consumer fear. The prospects are anxious because, to them, a home remodel is a really big deal. If you are selected, they will pay you a lot of money to do some pretty scary things (well, it’s scary to them) to their largest personal asset. Find ways to address this fear, and... (read more)

As anyone who has experienced any amount of shyness, or who has the constant fear of experiences can attest, life is just not that fun when you have a hard time being the person you know yourself to be, or the person you wish you were.

November 05, 2009

If you have ever suffered a panic attack, you know just how frightening the experience is: the irrational, uncontrollable fear. The tremors, the chills, the feeling of being paralyzed. If you have suffered a panic attack as an adult, chances are you had heard about panic attacks before you actually had one.
