Modern psychologists agree that we have to refer to mental states Because mental processes cannot be observed so we have to study mental processes indirectly and realize that they have visible consequences despite being invisible processes.

Mental state, or mental property, is a state of mind of a person. Mental states include a diverse class that includes perceptions, painful experiences, beliefs, desires, intentions, emotions, and memory. There is controversy regarding the exact definition of this term.

It makes no sense to define mental states as brain activity because all mental states, from sensations to emotions and imagination; produces some degree of sensation, but this cannot be assumed to be so, related to brain activities such as neuronal activation, electrochemical impulses, etc.

  • The beliefs that such cults run on are often found to be superstitious or having emerged out of ridiculously orthodox thinking.

Choose all of the accurate statements regarding the AIDS epidemic in Africa.
Vlad [161]

The accurate statements regarding the AIDS epidemic in Africa are the following:

  1. HIV  was first diagnosed in the 1980's. Although the virus was tracked back to  1959, it was during the 1980's when the first patient was diagnosed with the term HIV virus.
  2. Some people did not seek treatment for  HIV because of the social stigma of the disease. A lot of people were afraid of seeking treatment or even getting tested for HIV, in fear that if being affected by it, they would be discriminated and marginalized from society.
  3. Over half of all HIV/AIDS deaths in the world are in Africa. In 2017, there were 36.9 million people living with HIV in the world. From that number, over 20 million people live in different parts of Africa.
  4. Civil war and economic problems slowed the response of many African countries. Although there has been a great improvement with the early diagnosis and treatment of the virus in African patients, the economic and social conditions of certain countries have made the response to the virus a slower one.
