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.
