Question 1

Many people believe that suicide represents the ultimate failure to cope with life's stresses. Others feel that suicide is, itself, a coping response. What do you think? Is one type of stress more likely to lead to suicide than others?


Question 2

A friend shows you an article in the newspaper that indicates a researcher found the prevalence of a specific health disorder increased by 70 percent in individuals who consumed calcium-enhanced milk products. After reading this article, your friend has decided to stop purchasing any products that contain calcium. What should you tell your friend, based on the information provided in the Critical Thinking application at the end of the chapter?

She has made an excellent choice, because 70 percent is a statistically significant increase in risk.
The reported increase may not be important if the base rate of the disorder is quite low.
The reported increase probably excludes a number of factors, so the risk may actually be greater than 70 percent.
It is necessary only to cut out milk products, but there is no need to cut out other products that might also contain calcium.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
