re before they got cancer. He creates a questionnaire asking things like, "Did you like your job?", "Did you have a happy home life?", etc. During the study the researcher noticed that those with higher stress levels before cancer did not get as much asleep as those with lower levels.

When people or group negates their ideas or opinion, they feel such individual or group aren't doing the right thing because they feel their opinion is the 'normal' standard of reasoning.
