É empregado para sinalizar uma relação do indivíduo com estimulação aversiva, caracterizado por apreensão, pela impossibilidade de prever ou controlar os eventos que estão por vir. Envolve espera.

It does mean, however, that the world today is more vulnerable to hurricane impacts than it has ever been, which represents a serious policy problem. This book defines and assesses the hurricane problem, focusing primarily on the United States, in order to lay a foundation for action. The concept of vu...
