A researcher reviewed the research on physiological reactivity of people who are most susceptible to coronary disease. Which of the following is the best summary of that research?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The best summary of the research is that people who are most susceptible to coronary disease exhibit high physiological reactivity. This means that their bodies react strongly to stressors or other stimuli, which is a risk factor for developing coronary disease. Option A is incorrect because low physiological reactivity would not increase the risk of coronary disease. Option C is irrelevant as it refers to a specific state (sleep) rather than overall reactivity. Option D is also irrelevant as it refers to a specific situation (frustration) rather than overall reactivity.
