Answer:

The best answer choice for the question: Which of the following best describes the results of Dr. Sneed´s study on volunteering and hypertension, would be, D: The risk of hypertension is lower only for people who volunteer more than 200 hours per year.

Explanation:

The study, which was carried out by Rodlescia S. Sneed and Sheldon Cohen, and which was published under the name "A Prospective Study of Volunteerism and Hypertension Risk in Older Adults" was a very interesting one where the correlation between the risk of developing hypertension in older adults, and the hours spent at volunteering activities, 200 or more in a year, regardless of age, sex, origin, race, and other factors, was studied. In the end, the results of this study show that there is, in fact, a relation between the two things and it is believed that the reason is that volunteering in older adults brings positive concepts about self, and others, that affect the body positively. Thus, although volunteering won´t change a person´s hypertensive state and it is not a cure either, it does reduce the incidence of hypertension on the people that were followed for 4 years. The clarification, however, made by the investigators, is that this applies to older adults who volunteered at least 200 hours or more, and not the other group studied, which was the one that volunteered less that 200 and to a minimum of 100 hours per year. This is why the answer is D.

Research suggest that hypnosis helps reduce anxiety and fear. This could lead to reduced pains associated with child birth.

From studies, when an individual is hypnotized, that individual is more relaxed, peripheral awareness is reduced and that individual is in a trance-like state and in extreme cases even numb to pains. This helps reduce pains during childbirth.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

D. The divine is thought of as God or as gods.

Explanation:

The very term "theistic" refers to the act of any belief in the existence of a superpower entity, anything divine which we prefer to address as God or Gods. this theistic belief forms the basis of an individual's belief in the existence of a divine being.

So, with the presence of divine "gods", there comes up the practice of religion(s). These religions are referred to as theistic only due to their basis in the thought of the God or Gods, as per the religion.
