“…The authors concluded that there was a close relationship between the current state of the individual and all dimensions of childhood traumas. In a study by Vozmediano et al (2017), in which the effects of family type and sex on altruistic fear of crime was investigated, sex was reported to be correlated with the crime type and women's altruistic fear levels were found to be higher than men. Beydogan Tangor and Curun (2016) investigated the predictors of psychological well-being and concluded that psychological wellbeing level negatively affected trait anxiety whereas increased self-esteem.…”

“…Traumas experienced particularly in early years and critical periods of development can lead to greater and permanent effects on individuals. Sexual, emotional, or physical abuse and neglect are among the types of trauma that children are exposed to during childhood (Vozmediano et al, 2017). Many studies have reported that neglect and abusive behaviors have the same negative effects on individuals (Ozen, 2010;Yildiz, 2020).…”

Childhood is the period during which physical and mental development is extremely rapid from the first years of life. Furthermore, many basic factors affecting the future lives of individuals start to be shaped. The child's future life, psychological well-being, and quality of life are negatively affected by the exposure to unwanted situations by the family or the environment during this period. As a matter of fact, behavior patterns exhibited by individuals during adulthood are thought to be correlated with childhood traumas. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the relationship between the altruistic fear of crime, psychological well-being, and childhood traumas among mothers with children aged three to six years. A cross-sectional correlation research design was used for this study. The sample of the study consisted of 214 volunteer mothers, whose children were attending a private preschool education institution in the city center of Gumushane province of Turkey during the 2019/2020 academic year. The research data were collected using "Personal Information Form", "Childhood Trauma Questionnaire", "Altruistic Fear of Crime Scale" and "Psychological Well-being Scale". Data were analyzed using t-test, ANOVA, and correlation analysis. The results of the research showed that the age of the mothers, birth order, presence of any family member receiving psychological support, and marital satisfaction caused significant differences. Furthermore, scores obtained from "Personal Information Form", "Childhood Trauma Questionnaire", "Altruistic Fear of Crime" and "Psychological Well-being Scale" were found to be significantly correlated.

“…S rostoucím věkem dětí pocit strachu rodičů o ně sice klesá, přičemž největší bývá u čerstvých rodičů (Warr a Ellison 2000;Tulloch 2004), nicméně nemizí zcela, a rodiče se tak mohou obávat a obávají se i o své dospělé děti (Heber 2009). Zároveň výzkumy ukazují, že nejsou příliš velké rozdíly mezi intenzitou strachu mezi otci a matkami (Warr a Ellison 2000;Snedker 2006;Heber 2009;Vozmediano et al 2017), co ale podstatné je, tak o koho se bojí. Rodiče, nehledě na to, zda se jedná o matky či otce, se totiž více bojí o své dcery než o své syny (Heber 2009;Foster et al 2014;Vozmediano et al 2017).…”

“…Zdroje strachu jsou hledány jak v individuálních vlastnostech, charakteristikách a zkušenostech, tak v kontextu sociálního a fyzického prostředí, ve kterém žijeme, pohybujeme se, pracujeme, provozujeme různé aktivity, a nelze opomenout ani vnější vlivy, např. roli médií a jejich způsobů prezentace bezpečí a nebezpečí (srovnej Hale 1996;Vozmediano et al 2017). Jinou možností, jak lze nahlížet na zdroje strachu, je jejich časová a prostorová (ne)přítomnost v určité situaci, tedy určitá (ne)viditelnost.…”

„A přišel ti naproti?“: dohled rodičů jako neviditelná bariéra prostorového chování jejich dcer ve vzdálených univerzitních městech

Research on perceptions of security has long focused on exploring fear for oneself, but fear for other person, so-called altruistic fear, which can contribute significantly to the overall perception of security, is equally important. Fear for others is also related to the need for surveillance and control over those for whom we worry. This article focuses on the importance of transferred, spatially absent parental control for the perception of fear for daughters who moved from a small municipality to a large, distant university city. Through semi-structured interviews with female first and second year college students, we examine how their feelings of safety and danger in the new environment transformed during their transition to university, how parents approached their leaving home and how they communicated with their daughters, and how the parents continued to supervise them despite the spatial divide. Our analysis shows the different forms that the relationship between parental control and their daughter’s fear can take, and how fear for oneself can be interwoven with fear for others.

“…A menudo, colectivos menos victimizados, según los datos oficiales de delincuencia, expresan más temor, lo que se ha venido denominando la "paradoja del miedo al delito" Fattah, 1993); también la "paradoja espacial" (Vozmediano & San-Juan, 2006) o la "paradoja invertida", en la que la inseguridad objetiva supera al miedo (Liebnitzky & Montero, 2013). En la literatura científica, se han abordado a menudo las diferencias entre hombres y mujeres a este respecto (Ávila, Martínez-Ferrer, Vera, Bahena, & Musitu, 2015;Robles, 2014), así como las diferencias en relación con la edad, e incluso se estudia el miedo al delito altruista, es decir, el que sentimos por la seguridad de otras personas significativas (Vozmediano, San-Juan, Vergara, & Alonso-Alberca, 2017).…”

El presente trabajo analiza la inseguridad subjetiva y su relación con las dinámicas representacionales de la delincuencia en jóvenes universitarios de Venezuela (n = 305) y el País Vaco (n = 237). Siguiendo la metodología de Doise, Clèmence & Lorenzi-Cioldi (1993) se estudia el miedo y la inseguridad en los significados compartidos y diferenciales de la delincuencia, así como su anclaje en la percepción subjetiva del riesgo, experiencia de victimización y pertenencia al país. Los resultados muestran una representación más estereotipada de la delincuencia en los universitarios vascos asociando ciertos delitos a grupos y contextos criminógenos. Sin embargo, los venezolanos enfatizan las causas y consecuencias destructivas para la vida social y un estado de miedo e inseguridad, debido a una experiencia más cercana al delito. La percepción subjetiva del riesgo y la experiencia de victimización quedan asociadas a dichas representaciones. Se discute cómo el modelo propuesto permite definir nuevas prioridades y desafíos en los métodos utilizados para estudiar y combatir el miedo e inseguridad subjetiva.
