You should be able to find articles on fear in any dictionary or encyclopedia of psychology, as well as textbooks on emotion. It's an extensive field that includes everything from the conditioning experiments of John Watson (Little Albert) to psychoanalysis and the works of writers such as Freud.

Hi Sara, there is a book that might help you, and I think the title is: "Why Zebras don't get ulcers." Best, David

I think fear is a strong word.By reacting differently to fear,they probably feel scared of worried.The cause of fear is inside one's own emotions.Fear can cause people to commit suicide or be afraid of people unknown.That's what i think.
