A recent study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, exposed a possible relationship between stress levels and past experiences. The findings by researchers from Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin, New York University and McGill University demonstrated fear generalization by observing how the human mind responds to danger cues overtime for self-defense. Sometimes circumstances can trigger an overgeneralization, or what medical professionals identify as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. The study sheds light on possible treatment options for PTSD giving researchers new data on the relationship between stress and memory and how people process fear.
