When studying the results in more detail, one can see several dependencies worth noting. The most important, and also the most systematic, discriminatory factor is gender. Women are more concerned than men about all the studied issues. The difference is most notable in the assessments pertaining to nuclear power. The difference remains major when assessing, for example, wars and military conflicts globally, the threat / spreading of terrorism, and various natural catastrophes [Figure 32]. A clear view on the differences between the attitudes of women and men can be seen when studied in a simplified manner, as the difference between the mean values [Figure 32b].

Furthermore, age clearly correlates with many concerns. Issues for which older people are more concerned include, for example, the threat from organized crime, the worry that jobs will transfer to countries of cheap labor, and the problems with the care of the elderly and healthcare in Finland. The assessments of younger people stress more the use of fossil fuels and climate change, for example. Dependencies arising from the level of education also concentrate on the same issues: people with a lower level of education are more concerned than people with a higher level of education about, for example, jobs transferring to other countries and the use of gene technology.

The differences based on the respondents' attitude towards nuclear power are also significant. Those in favor of nuclear power are less concerned about nuclear power - for which the difference is naturally large - but also about almost all of the issues studied. The only exception, and also an issue feared as much by supporters and opponents of nuclear power, is a future global economic recession. The difference between these groups is especially great in the concerns pertaining to the risks arising from gene technology and various natural catastrophes, for example [Figure 33].

Gene technology can also be seen as a major issue when studying the interdependencies among the concerns. The concern with nuclear power most strongly correlates with the concern with gene technology (r = .45). This shows that these concerns are clearly related. Both can be deemed as concerns pertaining to an uncontrolled phenomenon unknown to the concerned, a phenomenon not controlled by man, something that 'should not have been tampered with at all'. The correlation between these concerns also shows their cumulative nature. Almost all the dependencies are positive, i.e., if a person is more concerned about one of the issue than the average, the person is likely to be more concerned than average about other issues, too.

If one continues to analyze the results by calculating a uniting sum of points showing the total level of concern, one can see that this figure is connected to various demographic and social attributes. When gender and age are combined, one can see that older women are relatively the most burdened by concerns. The most unconcerned respondents are young men. People with an academic education are less concerned than the population in average. When considering political views, the supporters of the National Coalition Party are relatively the least concerned about the issues studied.
