Latest comment: 8 months ago by Jingying Chen in topic Embracing fear

Suggestion edit

Hi,

This is an incredible topic! I wonder if you might be able to bring in the fight or flight response in the overview or maybe the "what is fear?" heading. This could bring in examples of when there might be benefits to fear. Additionally, I think it would be very interesting to add where fear happens in the brain and how we come to be fearful. I have found a reference that might be beneficial for you to start thinking about this. I can't wait to read this chapter once completed!

As per our discussions edit

Hi,

I really like the use of boxes and questions like we discussed.

I would also move some more questions earlier in the chapter to make sure that it doesn't feel like a quiz.


Keep up the good work :)

Comment edit

I enjoyed this chapter! I've been thinking a lot about fear vs anxiety this semester it feels so odd to think of the emotion I have surrounding assessment for example as fear instead of anxiety. I liked your brief dip into culture of fear do you know if there are any other examples in history of creating a culture of fear? War time perhaps?--U3037979 (discusscontribs) 22:50, 29 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Embracing fear edit

Hi, I really enjoyed the knowledge and insight you have incorporated in your book chapter.

I'm curious if it's worthwhile to consider the potential benefits of fear. For example, experiencing warning indications that raise our body's alertness to prepare for action, avoiding harmful actions, staying accountable to your commitments, and so on?
