Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When someone is exhausted and stressed out, they are more likely to engage in unchallenging media consumption as a way of relaxation. This can include watching TV, scrolling through social media, or playing video games, all of which require minimal effort and can serve as a distraction from work-related stress. While physical activity and face-to-face social activities can also be effective relaxation techniques, they require more energy and effort than media consumption, which may not be feasible for someone who is already exhausted. Challenging mind diversions such as Sudoku or crossword puzzles may not be as effective in reducing stress as they can also be mentally exhausting.
