Fear, a negative emotion that everyone has experienced it in their personal lives, a threat of harm in physical, emotional or psychological, even real or imagined (Ekman, 2020).
However, the fear emotion plays an important role in our lives to face potential danger (Ekman, 2020). When there are threats coming towards us or we feel like we're in danger, this emotion allows us to protect ourselves from bad things. It heightens our awareness to the surroundings we are at, and allows our mind to point what could get wrong (Marston, 1999).
Fear is also one of the powerful emotion amongst the all emotions (Barthers & Legum, 2018), because emotions are more powerful than our thoughts, leaving fear as the strongest parts of our intelligence.
