Life events that are voluntary, scheduled, and desirable are typically seen as positive events such as a vacation, wedding, or job promotion. These events are usually controllable and individuals have actively chosen to pursue them, which can lead to a sense of agency and decreased stress compared to events that are not controllable or desirable. Therefore, D is the correct choice as it suggests that voluntary events are less stressful than involuntary events.
