The sentence talks about the importance of hope for survival and that prisoners who found meaning or clung to hope were more likely to survive. These factors that directly influence survival are referred to as protective factors. Therefore, option C is the correct answer. Option A (catecholamines) are stress hormones that can be a physiological response to stress and are not directly mentioned in the context. Option B (confounds) are extraneous variables that could affect the outcome, but this term is not relevant to the given sentence. Option D (vulnerability factors) is incorrect as the term refers to factors that make individuals more susceptible to negative outcomes, which is opposite to the context that talks about factors that protect and contribute to survival.
