Out of all the true or false statements, numbers 7, 11, and 29 surprised me the most.
Regarding number 7, I always assumed adolescents experience more stress, changes, and depression
than any other age group. However, I was astounded at the fact that elderly men are most likely to
commit suicide. You wouldn’t expect the elderly to do such a thing.
Number 11 was ingrained into my head while in high-school. I hated changing my first guess, as my
teachers scolded me for doing so. However, it makes sense that one would only remember the times
they changed their answer and got it wrong, rather than the other way around. Maybe that is why it is
looked down upon.
Finally, number 29 was depressing to learn. It makes me lose faith in humanity, because I always believe
there will always be some sense of good in this world. Personally, I know that no matter who told me to
harm another individual, I would refuse, simply because I believe it is wrong. I’m coming to the
realization, however, that not everyone shares the same values as I.
