Positive psychology has been successful in drawing attention to the fact that psychologists had overlooked what makes life worth living.

At first the relationship between positive psychology and humanistic psychology was difficult.  But as positive psychology has developed and matured it is clear that the idea we should be concerned with what makes for a good life was an idea also at the core of humanistic psychology in the 1950’s and 1960’s. 

Humanistic psychology developed around the middle of the twentieth century in part to address the fact that the previous ways of thinking in psychoanalysis and behaviourism had not been concerned with the full range of functioning.

Answer:

Humanistic psychology focused on a person, as a whole, and their immanent tendency and possibility to grow, towards self-realization. It tries to answer the question: what may help the person develop their potential.

Positive psychology focus on all circumstances that are connected with peoples' wellbeing and happiness. It tries to answer the question: what makes people feel happy.

They both focuse on a positive aspects of human existency, in contrast to clinical approaches.

Diuretics will remove water from the blood and eliminate it in the urine. Consequently, water will move from the peritoneal cavity into the bloodstream reducing her ascites.

•The mechanism of action of diuretics are

o Osmotic diuretics are substances that are not reabsorbed or that exceed the ability of the tubule to reabsorb it, which increases osmolarity of the urine, and causes water to be drawn into the urine from the ISF.

o Loop diuretics (Lasix) inhibit symporters in the loop of Henle by diminishing sodium chloride uptake. They reduce the normal hyperosmolality of the medullary interstitial fluid, reducing the effects of ADH, resulting in loss of NaCl and water.

o Thiazides act on the distal convoluted tubule to inhibit water reabsorption.

•Her diet is salt-restricted because if salt content in the blood is high, it will cause her to retain water rather than allowing her to eliminate it.

Why does a physically active job does not guarantee better physical fitness.
Greeley [361]
Your personal fitness is what you make of it. A physically demanding job can be beneficial if you also support it with a nutritious diet and maintain proper health. But if your job is physically active and you eat more than needed, it does not matter how much you are working, because you are still consuming more calories than you are burning.

Discuss how the use of pedometers benefited people at high risk for type 2 diabetes
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

A pedometer is a device that is used to measure the estimated distance traveled by foot through recording the number of steps made. A pedometer has benefited people at high risk for type 2 diabetes, because these people are believed to have a sedentary lifestyle and that they are encouraged to do exercise more often. And with the use of this device, they can track how much activity they get and if they need more.
