According to the APA (DSM-5, 2013), bipolar disorder involves both depressive and manic (and/or hypomanic) symptoms; as such, it is neither precisely a depressive disorder nor an anxiety disorder (the DSM classifies it under Bipolar and Related Disorders). However, extrapolating from the research literature on depression and anxiety, what would be the most reasonable inference to draw about a relationship between bipolar disorders and stress?
 
  A) There is likely no relationship since bipolar disorder is different from depressive or anxiety disorders.
  B) There is likely some relationship since at least one bipolar component, depression, is related to stress.
  C) There is likely no relationship since no research has connected manic/hypomanic states with stress.
  D) There is likely some relationship since manic and hypomanic states are equivalent with anxiety states.

Question 2

Anneli and Viveka have each had genetic testing. Anneli has been identified as having a high genetic risk for depression; Viveka has been identified as having a low genetic risk for depression. Based on Kendler and colleagues' 2007 findings, what is likely?
 
  A) Stress will be more predictive of depression for Anneli than for Viveka.
  B) Stress will be more predictive of depression for Viveka than for Anneli.
  C) Stress will be equally predictive of depression for both of these women.
  D) Stress will be no more predictive of depression for either of the women.
