Excerpt: ... phenomena of hypotrophism can acquire sufficient intensity to cause death. The disastrous effects of administering the last sacraments to the sick have been frequently noted, and Haller mentions the case of a man who passing over a grave felt himself held by the foot and died the same day. Phenomena Op The Short Circuit. As in the case of the phenomena of the interrupted circuit, the phenomena of the short circuit can have for their seat: (1) sensorial neurones, (2) mnesic neurones, (3) superior motor neurones, (4) superior trophic neurones. These can be arranged under the following four heads: (1) Hyperesthesias, (2) Hypermnesias, (3) Phenomena of hypertonus, (4) Phenomena of hypertrophism. 1. Hyperesthesias. Hyperesthesia can be established in relation to the object which excites fear. If that object affects vision or hearing, the subject sees or hears only it, and sees or hears it very clearly. Fear magnifies the object. This is also true for the other senses. Those who are subject to excessive fear of pain have hyperalgesia; the extremely fastidious have hypergustativity or hyperosmia; those who are extremely sensitive to touch, who fear the touch of a peach or velvet have hypertactesthesia; people who fear the cold suffer from hypercryesthesia, while those who fear warmth suffer from hyperthermoesthia. 2. Hypermnesias. Memory and imagination, that is to say, the functions by which the memory images arrange and combine themselves, play a considerable role in fear. The child subject to nocturnal fears suddenly awakes, sits up and fixates a point in space. What it is really looking at is a projected image produced by nervous waves emanating from the neurones of the visual centres and pressing upon the neurones of peripheral vision, i....

Download or read book The Fear free Organization written by Paul Brown and published by Kogan Page Publishers. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evidence from neuroscience shows that individuals and organizations are more successful when people are encouraged to take risks, explore new ideas, and channel their energies in ways that work for them. And yet many organizations are filled with bullies, vicious gossip, undermining behaviours, hijacking tactics, political jockeying for position, favouritism and other factors that instil fear and impede productivity. It is no wonder that organizations are actively looking at how they can improve and maintain the psychological health and wellbeing of their employees to the benefit of all concerned. The Fear-free Organization reveals how our new understanding of the neurobiology of the self - how the brain constructs the person - can transform for the better the way our businesses and organizations work. Academic yet accessible, The Fear-free Organization addresses head on the issue that scared people spend a lot more time plotting their survival than working productively. The book helps leaders understand the neurobiology of fear, face the damage it is doing, and replace it with building relationships, managing energy flow and fostering trust. It guides you in making your workplace one that's full of energy, not adrenalin; focused on possibility, not profit; and generates independent thinking, not obedience so you can promote the psychological wellbeing that is strongly correlated with greater energy, motivation and better cognitive function.
Download or read book The Psychology of Fear and Stress written by Jeffrey Alan Gray and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1987 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do human emotions arise, what functions do they serve, what is their evolutionary background, how do they relate to behaviour and the brain? These questions are put, and answered, in relation to the emotion of fear in this, the second edition of professor Gray's extremely well known book, first published in 1971. In this edition, the text has been extensively modified and brought up-to-date, but the book maintains the style and general argument of the first edition. The author's approach in this book is from a biological standpoint; he emphasises the evidence that has accumulated from experiments by psychologists, ethologists, physiologists and endocrinologists. Although a lot of this evidence has been obtained from animal studies, it throws light on the psychology and physiology of fear in Man. Differences between individuals in their susceptibility to fear are treated with as much attention as the common factors are.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physiology of Faith and Fear: Or the Mind in Health and Disease We are now passing through a period of popular reaction against the scientific materialism of the last century. The common people are awaking to the fact that the mental state has much to do With bodily health and disease. The book makers, in their efforts to satisfy the universal demand for teaching on various phases of mental healing, have flooded us with literature, much of which is premature, unscientific, incomplete, and highly disastrous in its misleading influence upon the popular mind and morals. It is to be deplored that practically every system of modern mental healing has declared as the secret of its success its association with some creed or cult - claiming that physical healing was dependent upon the acceptance of some particular moral teaching or system of religious belief. At the very outset we desire to separate the study of mental healing from any and all particular brands of religion - not-from religion as a state of mind, but from any particular system, sect, or form of religious belief.

Download or read book Psychology of Fear written by Paul L. Gower and published by Nova Biomedical Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fear is a normal human emotional reaction -- it is a built-in survival mechanism with which we are all equipped. Fear is a reaction to danger that involves both the mind and body. It serves a protective purpose -- signalling us of danger and preparing us to deal with it. The major components of fear are sensations, feelings, cognitions and behaviours. Fear can be individual or collective such as expressed in the national fear in the United States related to terrorism. The Washington DC sniper attacks caused widespread fear in a large geographic region far out of proportion to the real danger. Individuals must cope with fear on a daily basis in a myriad of forms: financial fears, health fears, relationship conflict fears, dental appointments, fears about the future etc. This new book collects important research which helps shed light on important issues in this field which touches all of us each day.
Download or read book Neurobiology of Fear Anxiety and Other Emotions written by Aage R Moller Phd and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-31 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fear and anxiety play essential roles in almost every person's life. Fear is the belief that something dangerous or unfortunate may happen in the future. Fear and anxiety are regarded to be unpleasant perceptions with few exceptions, such as the pleasure or joy that people may experience from watching horror movies. Fear and anxiety control many people's reactions to many aspects of life. However, it is well known that perceived fear is poorly related to real risks, and that is the case even when a person knows the real risk. Fear consistently overrides and manipulates facts. Fear may help someone avoid making bad or harmful choices, but it may also make people make decisions that are not beneficial. The book was written to promote a balanced understanding of fear and anxiety. The book shows that many lives could have been spared and many people could have been saved from suffering a reduced quality of life by better management of the emotion of fear and anxiety. The first chapter discusses the various definitions of fear and anxiety and how to approach an understanding of fear. Fear is one of the six innate emotions: anger, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness, and surprise. The second chapter discusses the variations of the theory of James Lange and the role of various forms of an appraisal. The role of a person's core values is discussed in connection with a person's quality of life. It also discusses the components of a good quality of life and the prerequisite for success in life. The third chapter discusses the neurobiology of emotions. The historical development of the understanding of the function of the "emotional brain" is discussed. How sensory input and memories and imaginations controls fear and anxiety is discussed. The role of the three nuclei of the amygdala in creating the actions caused by emotions, including fear and anxiety, is discussed. The roles of many other brain systems in this complex process are also discussed in this chapter.What specifically happens in the brain when a person experiences fear or anxiety is discussed in the fourth chapter of the book. Many brain systems may be activated, in connection with fear and anxiety. The fifth chapter discusses the neurobiology of threats. What to be afraid of and what not be afraid of is also discussed in this chapter. Fear is a part of the body's alarm system that can warn about the dangers of various kinds that may occur sometime in the future. Signs of danger may come from the outside the body or from the inside the body in the form of symptoms of diseases or signs of a need for fluid (thirst) or nutrition (hunger).The sixth chapter discusses how to minimize the risk of illnesses and other forms of bodily harm, and it discusses what to be afraid of and what not be afraid of. It discusses the benefits of preventive measures such as vaccination and the reasons that these benefits are not fully utilized. Some of the reasons for misuse of medications such as opioids are also discussed in this chapter.
