Answer to Question 1

Guided imagery is used primarily in counseling contexts to promote relaxation and stress reduction. It can also be used to foster insight or help clients visualize a more positive future.

Answer to Question 2

A recent meta-analytic review found that both progressive muscle relaxation and meditation are more effective than autogenic training for anxiety reduction. So it may not be the best deep relaxation method for anxiety reduction, but is a viable alternative if the practitioner does not respond well to progressive muscle relaxation or meditation training.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
