The behavior of panic participants.
Material type:
TextLanguage: ENG Publication details: 1957Description: 8pSubject: The behavior of panic participants does not represent a primitivation of responses. The panicky reaction is an attempt to adjust to an unexpected and action-demanding circumstance by non-rational and nonsocial individualistic flight. The seven propositions advanced in this paper represent an attempt to illustrate this fact - that a once socialized person even under extreme stress does not regress to the "brute level", but rather shifts to an individualistic solution of the crisis while continuing to use socially learned modes of responses in the process.
