After reading the paragraphs below, answer the questions that follow.

In investigating the role of oxytocin as an antistress hormone, researchers sought to explore the relationship between childhood maltreatment, PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) and oxytocin levels. One study measured the level of oxytocin (pg/mL) in people who had and had not experienced childhood maltreatment and who did and did not have PTSD. The results, averaged over many subjects, are these:
Levels of oxytocin (pg/mL) in people who had and had not experienced childhood maltreatment and who did and did not have PTSD
PTSDNo PTSD
Childhood maltreatment983669
No childhood maltreatment388752


A reasonable conclusion from this study would be
◦ oxytocin levels are higher in people who have had childhood trauma.
◦ people who have been mistreated as children are more likely to suffer from PTSD.
◦ people manage PTSD better if they have higher oxytocin levels.
◦ a range of experiences and life conditions probably affect oxytocin levels.
