Answer:

This is a use primarily for incidence data

Explanation:

Prevalence is basically representation of proportion of population with certain characteristic occurring in a given period of time.  

The general mathematical equation for the same is number of people with certain characteristics in a given population divided by total number of people in this population  

It is generally reported as % or number of people with the characteristic of interest per 10,000 or 1,00,000 people

Incidence on the other hand is the representation of new cases arising in a given population in a specified time period.  

Direct estimate of risk can be determined by quoting new cases arising in a given population  

This is a use primarily for incidence data

Elanso [62]

Answer:

According to psychologist Walter Cannon, motivation is a process that is best thought of as a process that maintains homeostasis.

Explanation:

Walter Canon was a physiologist who observed that the emotional response to a stimulus was linked to a manifestation in the body, both in the internal organs and in the muscles. Once the stimulus occurs, the body and emotional response occur at the same time, as set forth in the Canon-Bard theory.

A Canon student, Phillip Bard, took into account the observations made by his teacher, expanding the knowledge about the biopsychology of emotion.

For Waltewr Canon, emotion influences body response and motivation is the best way to achieve balance or homeostasis in the body.
