Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Epidemiology is the research approach that focuses on the prevalence and incidence of mental disorders and the factors that influence those patterns. It is the study of disease patterns in human populations and factors that influence those patterns. Prevalence refers to the number of cases of a disorder in a given population at a designated time. Incidence is the number of new cases that emerge in a given population during a specified period of time.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
