A report appearing in Science 312 May 5, 2006, pp 754-58 cited that Gregory S. Berns led a group of neuroscientists at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, USA for a research on the study of pain and its anticipation. Human brain scans showed that anticipation of pain intensifies in the areas ruled by attention not areas ruled by fear. Therefore, people who chose to take more pain now rather than less pain later made the choice out of desires to end the sensation of dread and not out of fear, which gives meaning to the quotation: The Only Thing We Have To Fear … Is Fear Itself, Said by Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882-1945), 32nd President of the United States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt. The results of these studies seem to suggest that the dread factor can be vanquished by channeling attention to other life activities. At best, these are manifested as constructive aggression or known otherwise as initiative, motivation or self-motivation: endeavored personally, nationally, or internationally. On the other hand, at worst, destructive aggression only resulted in crime and punishment and in many cases self-destruction. The former leads to fulfilled lives beneficial to all societies. The latter leads to strives, wars, and conflicts and the probable end of human civilization.
