When a threat is suspected or detected, the brain will give order to freeze and try to detect or estimate the what kind of threat it is. Then three options will follow. In most cases it is better to run a way from danger (Which is named Flight). When the danger is unavoidable, then either the brain will give instruction to ''fight'' the danger, and if it is to strong and we can not escape, the last option we be to surrender in hope that the attacker will leave us alone and will not atack us. The last option is called ''Fright''. So today we can calll this reaction '''Freeze, Flight, Fight or Fright''' (FFFF).

People how feel thretend or intimidated from social circumstances, will become more conservatives. A socail stress will occuer and the FFFF system will intiate a reaction to the threat. They will be more aggresive (fight) or detached (flight) or depressesed (fright), depending of their patern of reaction.

Fight or Flight was a trem coined by Walter Cannon[1], and it describe as a decision system that react to threats. In the begging only to reaction were detected - Fight or Flight. But as the research in this area progressed it is now known to consist of more complex set of reactions to threat. It consist of one immediate reaction, and three optional coarse of actions[2]. The first is Freeze. When a threat is suspected or detected, the brain will give order to freeze and try to detect or estimate the what kind of threat it is. Then three options will follow. In most cases it is better to run a way from danger (Which is named Flight). When the danger is unavoidable, then either the brain will give instruction to fight the danger, and if it is to strong and we can not escape, the last option we be to surrender in hope that the attacker will leave us alone and will not atack us. The last option is called Fright. So today we can calll this reaction Freeze, Flight, Fight or Fright (FFFF).

It seems that most of the system is located in Amygdala[3][4][5][6][7] and in other areas of the limbic system[8]. The process is called "amygdala hijack" and it proceess was described by Daniel Goleman[9]. When signals of threat are intiated, a reaction signals are send from the amygdala to the brain steam and to the prefrontal cortex[10]. In due time and with effortful control the system can be thought and mainpulated.

People how feel thretend or intimidated from social circumstances, will become more conservatives. A socail stress will occuer and the FFFF system will intiate a reaction to the threat. They will be more aggresive (fight) or detached (flight) or depressesed (fright), depending of their patern of reaction.

The FFFF system will be more active in people who grow in a harsh invoriment with social threats and parental criticism.

The limbic system is connected to decision making with rewrds in the short range[11].

In order to resolve an emotional conflict the rostalACC inhibits the amygdala (or FFFF mechanism)[12]. This is strengthing by the findings that in panic disorder, the volume of the the ACC is reduced, [13] . When the ACC (ACcd) has deficient in activation, there seem to be more impolsivity in ADHD compered to control group[14]. When anticipating pain, women domnstrate more activation of the ACC[15].

The modulation between FFFF reaction and normal system 1-system 2 decision making mechanisem is seems to be by the right CBF[16] and the ACC.

States

Fight

It seems that in a state of fight, people will take more risks.

Threat reaction in women

It seems the women have different stress reaction, which promote defending ofsprings and strengthening the social ties, so that the group can be stronger[17]. I suggest that such a reaction also exists in men, and it help them tight social bonds wthin the group, and though, strengh social capital, and strength the group abilities to attack or defend as a whole[18][19][20]. The group become more conformtive (I belive it is because of FFFF reaction inhibiting the ACC)[21][22][23].

Brain Mechanism

Predation and evasion are driven respectively form hypothalamus (LH) to the periaqueductal gray (PAG) inhibitory and excitatory projections from the mouse lateral midbrain [24].
