Psychological Security in Everyday Life: So, You Tell Me, Why Aren’t We Scared?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In his conceptualization of the hierarchy of needs, Maslow gave a significant place to the notion of security, the fulfillment of which paves the way for satisfying other needs, including the need for self-actualization. Since Maslow’s pioneering work, psychologists have tried to examine security, as both a dispositional and situational condition, influenced by different factors ranging from personality traits to sociocultural variables (see, for example, Carroll et al., 2015). In a Western context, the importance of psychological security as a prerequisite for enjoying everyday life became jarringly clear after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, when the routine stability of everyday life was suddenly disrupted and many people began to think about the risks and threats that jeopardize our sense of security. Although we no longer live under the constant threat of the Cold War and the atomic age—when the possibility of a global nuclear war enveloped the world as an existential risk—we have our own problems and challenges to be worried about.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
