Question 3

Practitioners of complementary therapies such as counseling, meditation, or massage often have a large body of _______ data that they have gathered through experience and observation.&#10;A) scientific&#10;B) intuitive&#10;C) holistic&#10;D) empirical

Accepted Answer

Empirical data refers to observations and experiences that have been collected systematically and through direct observation, which is often the case with complementary therapy practitioners. Scientific data refers to data that has been collected through the scientific method, which may not always be the case with complementary therapy practitioners. Intuitive data refers to insights gained through intuition or instinct, which may not be reliable or valid. Holistic data refers to a comprehensive understanding of a person's overall health and well-being, which may include many different types of data, including empirical data. However, in this context, the question is asking specifically about the type of data that practitioners have gathered through experience and observation, which is best described as empirical data.

Therefore, all of the options presented are correct.
