Talk:Radiophobia

message: "Fear of radiation is natural, since it presents clear danger;" — I think this statement should be qualified a bit. Radiation, per se, does not present a "clear danger" (light bulbs radiate, but they do not cause harm in the sense meant); fear of the hazards of highly-radioactive sources is reasonable, but I don't know if it is natural (it doesn't come "naturally", it comes via a lot of discussions of what radiation is, what the hazards are, how it works, etc.). --Fastfission 16:58, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Bias 

message: Added the Castle Bravo and psychological/artistic fallout from the incident. In examining phobias, it is important to remember that the psychology of a phobia is independent of objective assessment. By its very nature, a phobia is a subjective reaction to perceived threat, not a rational reaction based on documented risk level. - Tenebris  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.254.156.201 (talk) 10:36, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

message: The intro paragraph describes radiophobia as "the fear of ionizing radiation", however it then goes on to talk a lot about radio (RF) waves, which I thought were clearly in the non-ionizing range. Can someone help provide more clarity on this? -- SimonEast (talk) 04:48, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Can we provide a clearer definition? 

message: Radiophobia
The term is also used to describe the opposition to the use of nuclear technology (i.e. nuclear power) arising from "concerns disproportionately greater than actual risks would merit." 
Far from being fact-based, is not this statement an opinion of someone pushing a Pro-nuclear agenda?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.149.166.174 (talk) 10:31, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
