The strength of belief in envy is rooted in individuals and generally in most societies, through their references to link belief in some negative appearances. People who fear envy are more pessimistic about life situations, and sadness carries a person who focuses on the negative and bad aspects of a subject and on the contrary, optimism that makes Man focuses on positive aspects, no matter how stressful situations in life are provisions in confronting and addressing the pressures of different life. For this, the defensive pessimism makes individuals more highly organized for their own self. Fear of envy.
Fear of envy is a fundamental problem, because a person is not only harmful to a person but also envious of him, as the envious individual is subject to the unconscious powers in many cases, and this leads to defensive pessimism to confront negative thoughts in stressful life situations that the person is required to face in the community and complete his life path.
The scale was applied to university students from the humanity's scientific specialization, and the number of the sample consisted of 100 female students. The result was that each of the two sexes had a fear of envy and a defensive sham to complete the life process.
