Adaptive strategy theory systematically deals with the observation that crime is gener- ally goal-directed and occurs across cultures (see Ellis, 1990; Rowe, 1997), whereas life history theory examines social and perceptual cues for the unconscious adoption of various strategies (Hill, Ross, & Low, 1997).
Anxiety as an adaptive response is a natural emotion that occurs in response to danger and prepares an organism to cope with the environment, playing a critical role in its survival. Among the components of anxiety, the expression of fear may inform other members of the group about the presence of imminent danger (i.e., an alarm cue).
