There are several reasons that a person may be afraid of elevators:
* They are claustrophobic, meaning they fear small, enclosed spaces. * The elevator cables will break and they will crash into the ground floor. * The elevator may contain lots of germs on the buttons - germ phobias.
* The elevator may lose power or become stuck between floors for hours. * Too many people on the elevator might be scary, and too compact for them. * They don't like many people in one enclosed space.
Some people experience fear of heights but not fear of flying because the fear of heights is often related to a fear of falling, while flying in an airplane provides a sense of security and control that can help alleviate that fear.
While it is rare, some people may have a neurological condition that affects their ability to experience fear. This could be due to differences in brain structure or function. However, fear is a natural and adaptive response that helps protect us from danger, so not feeling fear at all can have implications for one's safety and survival.
The first elevator is more dense because it has a higher number of people (15) compared to the second elevator (7), even though both elevators may have the same physical dimensions. Density is calculated by mass (number of people in this case) divided by volume (elevator space), so in this scenario, the first elevator is more densely packed with people.
The fear of being around people is called social anxiety or social phobia. It is characterized by feelings of fear, nervousness, or discomfort in social situations.
