Abstract:
AbstractThe present study examined common childhood fears in 9- to 13-year-old South-African children (N = 404) from white, coloured, and black cultural groups. Fears were assessed by means of two methods — the fear list method and the Fear Survey Schedule for Children-Revised (FSSC-R). Results showed that fear rank orders as obtained with the fear list method were quite different from those derived from the FSSC-R. Furthermore, clear differences in fear levels were found among the three cultural groups. More specifically, coloured and black South-African children displayed significantly highe

Abstract:
The current study explored the relationship between conscious (overt) and unconscious (covert) death anxiety and chronological age, wherein composite scores as well as factor scores were used in the comparison of younger and older adults. Results indicated that there were reliable age differences in both overt and covert levels of death fear. Contrary to previous literature, older adults evidenced higher levels of overt fear, while younger adults' covert fears were greater. These data further substantiate the distinction between overt and covert levels of death anxiety in adulthood, where cumu

Exposure-based therapy is currently the treatment of choice for a number of specific phobias (Antony & Barlow, 2002). While a myriad of studies have been conducted investigating exposure characteristics, such as frequency and duration, or comparing exposure to other forms of treatment, few studies have investigated the mechanisms of change underlying fear reduction. The emotional processing model (Foa & Kozak, 1986, 1998) claims that full attention to the feared stimulus during exposure is required for fear reduction to take place. However, some studies have found that directing attention away

Fiction in general provides a framework for emotionally and cognitively engaging simulation at low cost and risk. That is why the human appetite for fiction evolved.

Recent studies on military breachers in training environments suggest that there are neurocognitive risks from exposure to repeated low-level blasts. However, the dose accumulation effects from multiple low-level blast exposures and their relation to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are not well understood. This paper presents a controlled neurobehavioral study of behavioral effects from repeated low-level blasts delivered at ten second intervals using a rat model. A custom designed shock tube was developed to deliver repeated low-level blasts to rats at short intervals on the order of secon

Abstract:
The importance of recycling is undeniable for the circular economy and it is one of the main strategies for waste minimization. Therefore, effectively performed encouragement of recycling becomes urgent. Social advertising that promotes recycling is one of the methods to encourage society to reach higher levels of recycling. Thus, it is of interest to determine whether a negative appeal (fear) or a positive appeal (joy) makes a bigger impact on willingness to recycle. Yet, this has rarely been studied directly. Therefore, the scientific problem solved in the article is: how does joy and fear a

Abstract:
It has been more than 30 years since the publication of data on health effects of low level began to appear in the scientific literature. Now, this extensive data bank clearly shows that the long-taught and utilized “Linear No-Threshold” (LNT) hypothesis is invalid and misleading at levels below 0.2 Sv (20 REM) per year. Below these levels, health and longevity are actually improved. Yet the imbedded and pervasive fear of low levels of radiation has resulted in planned and implemented nuclear plant shutdowns and eventual decommissioning, and has even affected the medical community regarding in

Abstract:
Individuals with Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) often also experience depression. The way people learn and remember things, especially how to differentiate between threatening and safe contexts, may be intricately intertwined with both PTSD and depression. Previous research has utilized fear conditioning paradigms to examine how individuals with these disorders learn to associate and remember cues that predict threat and safety in different contexts. Past studies suggest that fear-based learning and memory are associated with the activation of the hippocampus and amygdala. The purpose of

Abstract:
China's emergence has raised pointed questions about the future of manufacturing in Latin America. Once saw as its economic future, the viability of this activity in the region has long been challenged by traditional trade theory and, in practical terms, by at least three generations of Asian Tigers. China and its "unlimited supply of labor", rapid productivity growth, scale, and extremely interventionist state has brought the practical challenge to unprecedented levels.

This report contains an overview of the main conflict-sensitive concerns for social protection programmes and implementation modalities in Mozambique at the regional, local, and programme levels. Key concerns include issues around: (1) targeting, registration, and payment issues due to errors and delays and/or lack of understanding of eligibility criteria, and dynamics between host and displaced communities; (2) inadequate complaint and grievance mechanisms; (3) limited coordination between implementing actors; (4) insecurity caused by the NSAG; (5) fear and trauma reported by staff and benefi

Abstract:
This study investigates the impact of civilizational populism on intergroup emotions, social cohesion, and civility in the United Kingdom using quantitative analysis of British Social Attitudes Survey (BSA) 2021 data. The findings reveal significant correlations between exposure to populist rhetoric and heightened negative emotions, such as fear and anger, toward ethnoreligious and political minorities (r = 0.56). While political affiliation demonstrates a weaker direct influence (r = 0.14), perceptions of migration as culturally and economically beneficial are strongly associated with higher

Abstract:
The deregulation and flexibilisation of labour relations has been on the active neoliberal agenda of policymakers all over the world, including in Portugal. Against this backdrop, labour conditions have been worsening since the 1970s and 1980s, and workers have progressively lost some labour rights, which is noticeable in stagnant (or falling) wages, the rise of personal income inequalities, the proliferation of atypical work, the increase of precariousness, the surge of emotional abuses in the workplace, the deterioration of work–life balance and the spread of informal work.

Abstract:
In many countries in recent decades, the practice of earmarking (that is, raising and allocating) particular taxes for specific benefits is widespread (McCleary 1991; Wagner 1991; Wilkinson 1994; Hsiung 2001). It is often promoted by international financial organisations to enhance fiscal transparency and is sometimes even a pre-condition for loan programmes in many developing countries with high levels of corruption and low levels of government accountability (Teja 1988; IMF 2007). However, recent literature has argued that earmarking (or hypothecation) can be an inefficient fiscal tool. Earm

In the United States, public transit ridership in 2020 declined by 79% compared to 2019 levels. With lockdowns implemented during the early days of the pandemic, direct human-to-human interactions migrated to virtual platforms (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit). Social media platforms have aided researchers in answering numerous questions about current societal dilemmas, including COVID-19.

Abstract:
Global military expenditure has reached record levels. At the same time, hundreds of millions of people face non-traditional ‘vital’ risks and threats to their security—threats to their lives, livelihoods and dignity. Accelerating climate change and growing loss of biodiversity add unprecedented urgency to investing in people’s security. The concept of human security, as explained in this paper, emphasizes the security of people without neglecting the security of states and state order. The human security approach stresses the necessity to balance the financial needs from all vital risks and t
