The Psychology of Self Defense - 3 Pathological Threats



wilderness survival skill

A threat of injury to yourself is often seen as a threat in psychology of self-defense. This defense reaction can be impeded by pathological threats, which don't care about who is injured. This perspective can be changed by recognizing one's own important value and reducing the perceived threat. The following are three examples of pathological threats. You can read on to find out more about each.

Psychopaths don't care about the hurt.

A psychopath doesn't care who gets hurt unless you have a strong instinct for defense. Psychopaths don't feel sorry for their actions and won't care about who is hurt. They don't care about the hurt they cause and won't feel bad about it. Psychopaths have an extremely high sense of self and believe that the laws of the world do not apply to them. These people will do whatever it takes to escape punishment, even harming others.

They don't give a damn about who gets hurt

Psychopaths on the other side don't care if anyone else is hurt in self defense and are more likely to be manipulative. Psychopaths create fear in their victims and cover their threats with stories about disappearances or family secrets. This manipulation strategy is designed to manipulate the victim's emotions so that they will give in to the bully's demands.

Imperfect self defense

There is a difference in imperfect self-defense from ordinary self-defense. In situations where a person feels that he/she is in imminent danger, imperfect self-defense can be used to protect oneself. This doctrine, unlike ordinary self defense, is not applicable in all cases. It is only used when an individual is trying protect himself from a fatal threat.

Force fatale

If the self-defense victim believes that he/she is in imminent danger of being killed or severely injured, then it is legal to use deadly force. The rapist must threaten harm to the victim, with a substantial chance of death or great bodily injuries, in order to justify the use deadly force. There are four basic elements that make a force deadly. These are: self-defense must justify the use force. However, there are two exceptions to this rule: excessive force during the initial attack and withdrawal.


Motivational theory

R.W. Rogers in 1975, and then expanded in 1983. The protection motivation theory attempts predict why people make certain choices in stressful situations. The main topics included quitting smoking and the danger of cancer. Some minor topics included the use of a bicycle helmet, reducing caffeine intake, improving oral hygiene, pain management in the post-surgical period, and safe pesticide use. Research has shown that psychological and physiological factors related to self defense are similar to those of other topics.

Denial

It is a primitive defense mechanism. It can work alone or with other subtle mechanisms to prevent a person from dealing with unpleasant emotions or areas of life. For example, a student might refuse to acknowledge their obvious inexperience during a test. Another example is when a person minimizes their effort to acknowledge their lack of preparation during a presentation. In some cases, however, denial in self defense may be harmful.
