TY - JOUR PY - 2002// TI - The effects of terrorism on teens' perceptions of dying: the new world is riskier than ever JO - Journal of Adolescent Health A1 - Halpern-Felsher, Bonnie L. A1 - Millstein, Susan G. SP - 308 EP - 311 VL - 30 IS - 5 N2 - Adolescents assessed after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks perceived the risk of dying from general causes, a tornado, and an earthquake as dramatically higher than did adolescents assessed years before the attacks. Adolescents' heightened perceptions of vulnerability to death extended beyond the terrorist acts, and generalized to unrelated risks.
