Define the term intuition. Why is intuition better than logic in protecting you from danger? How does de Becker define fear, and why do you think fear is a gift? What warning signs did Robert Thompson notice that caused him to walk out of the convenience store? Why didn't the police officer notice them? List and define de Becker's survival signals we get from people who might harm us. Provide an example of each, utilizing the airplane situation involving the middle-aged man Billy and the teenage girl. De Becker writes of a victim selection process. What conditions are important to offenders in the selection of targets? How does de Becker suggest that the victim handle each of these situations: a car-jacking and someone is following them?
