Abstract
Overprediction of danger is associated with anxiety disorder symptoms. We examined gender differences in overprediction of severe weather dangers. Overprediction of weather dangers is common in both men and women with weather phobia. However, overprediction of threats occurs in men but not women with weather-related PTSD.
