• Gender Differences in Fear of Terrorism (2009, background): “Though some researchers object to using questions with the word worry to measure fear, it has generally been established that the term worry is a satisfactory measure of fear (Lane & Meeker, 2000; Warr & ellison, 2000).”
• A Multidimensional Examination of Campus Safety (2007, methodology): “Lane and Meeker (2000) suggest, in fact, that worry is often language used in lay conversations to convey the emotion of “being afraid.””
• Women's and men's fear of gang crimes: Sexual and nonsexual assault as perceptually contemporaneous offenses (2003, background): “Studies have indicated that all these aspects may be important (e.g., Best, 1999; Warr & Stafford, 1983), but researchers have rarely asked respondents about the specifics of their thinking process when t hey are afraid (but see Lane, 2002; Lewis & Salem, 1986)”
