My core takeaway is that we each of us have needs for order and tolerances for uncertainty and that the theory and research shows how these vary under environmental conditions: A higher threat level edges us away from our tolerance of uncertainty and toward our need for order. Awareness of this may help prevent overreactions (personal and political) to circumstances with which we are uncomfortable (discomfort being perhaps subconsciously as threatening).
