Question

a. five times less likely than men
b. more likely than men
c. just as likely as men
d. three times less likely than men

Answer 1

The correct answer would be option B, More Likely than Men.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statistically, women are more likely than men to be diagnosed with major depression.

Major Depressive Disorder has become commonly found more in women than men. It is seen that women who hit by any stressor are more likely to suffer from the Major Depressive Disorder, or simply the Depression. Break ups, Divorces, Job layoffs, emotional breakdown, etc would cause more damage in terms of depression to the women than men.
