theft
3-Safety on the internet
4-Being the victim of a mass/
random shooting
5-Public speaking

Dr. Christopher Bader (leader of the
team effort) said:

“What initially lead us into this line
of research was our desire to
capture this information on a year-
over-year basis so we can draw
comparisons with what items are
increasing in fear as well as
decreasing,”

He further said:

“We learned through this initial
survey that we had to phrase the
questions according to fears vs.
concerns to capture the information
correctly, so that is how we present
it,”

The team also came up with,
