Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III
(A) Creative visualisation — this matches (II) Subjective experience. Creative visualisation is a subjective experience that uses imagery and imagination; one sets a realistic goal and pictures it with a quiet mind and a relaxed body.
(B) Cognitive Behavioral Technique (CBT) — this matches (IV) Meichenbaum. These techniques aim to inoculate people against stress; stress inoculation training, developed by Meichenbaum, replaces negative and irrational thoughts with positive and rational ones.
(C) Biofeedback — this matches (I) Monitor physiological responses. Biofeedback is a procedure to monitor and reduce the physiological aspects of stress by giving feedback about current physiological activity, such as heart rate.
(D) Relaxation — this matches (III) Deep breathing. Relaxation usually starts from the lower part of the body and moves up to the facial muscles; deep breathing is used along with muscle relaxation to calm the mind and relax the body.
