Hi guys.
00:02
Today we're looking at the question.
00:04
People who consistently come up with blank explanations for negative events are more prone to depression.
00:11
So the question is in that blank.
00:15
Oops, not expression.
00:19
Explanation.
00:27
For, i'm going to write this as neg for negative events.
00:36
Okay, so let's go through the answers and hopefully you can get to the closest one.
00:41
First one is a overly optimistic this one is going to be not that accurate for making someone more prone to depression because depression is predictably not characterized by like a positive outlook on things so right way right away we can say that we know it's not a so let's cross that out b we have pessimism this one is going to be closer because a lot of times depression is characterized by a worse outlook and definitely like a a more pessimistic outlook and prediction for the future.
01:18
Like a lot of times people who are suffering from depression are going to have worse and more negative predictions for the future.
01:26
And this is going to apply to also the explanations for events that happen, rather than attributing them to something more optimistic, like a fluke or just a simple mistake, they could go deeper for someone with depression.
01:37
It could become much more significant of an event.
01:41
So it could definitely be be.
01:43
But we're going to go ahead and look at the other answers just to be safe.
01:47
C, delusional.
01:50
Delusional basically means that someone's explanation is like detached from reality.
01:57
Like it's completely out there and it is not considering the real parts of the situation at all...
