Abstract

Fear in children is of clearly exogenous origin. Negative experiences will cause fear by direct conditioning. The influence of an important other person can be the root of fear by indirect conditioning. Antecedent factors and intermediary variables associated with fear are described. Usefulness and indications of the different questionnaires for children are specified.
