Childhood phobias : ウィキペディア英語版 | Childhood phobias
A childhood phobia〔(【引用サイトリンク】first=T.H. )〕 is an exaggerated, intense fear “that is out of proportion to any real fear” found in children.〔 It is often characterized by a preoccupation with a particular object, class of objects, or situation that one fears.〔 A phobic reaction is twofold—the first part being the “intense irrational fear’ and the second part being “avoidance.”〔 Children during their developmental stages experience fears. Fear is a natural part of self-preservation. Fears allow children to act with the necessary cautions to stay safe.〔 According to Child and Adolescent Mental Health, “such fears vary in frequency, intensity, and duration; they tend to be mild, age-specific, and transitory.”〔 Fears can be a result of misperceptions. When a child perceives a threatening situation, his or her body experiences a fight or flight reaction.〔 Children placed in new situations with unfamiliar objects are more likely to experience such reactions. These fears should be passing, a result of childhood development.〔
