Text 1According to a study by Cal Fen Song and colleagues, happy people live longer because they are healthy. Using the data from the Singapore Longitudinal Aging Studies, Song found that happiness was a significant factor in contributing to lower mortality. While this study and others have emphasized happiness as an important aspect of health, Song noted that not enough research has been done on what makes someone happy and, thus, live longer.Text 2Beginning in 1938, the Harvard Study of Adult Development followed 268 men for 80 years, gathering data on their physical and mental health. Director of the study Robert Waldinger noted that the most important factor in determining how long the men lived were not genes or social class but how many close relationships the study participants had. The study found a strong correlation between long, healthy lives and positive relationships with family, friends, and a larger community. People’s level of satisfaction with their relationships at 50 was a better predictor of their physical health than cholesterol levels.Based on the texts, how would Waldinger (Text 2) most likely respond to the conclusion Song (Text 1) reached?By emphasizing that lower cholesterol levels were an important factor in determining a person’s longevityeliminateBy arguing that happiness is not an accurate a predictor of longevityeliminateBy agreeing that happy people make better choices about their physical healtheliminateBy suggesting that the happiness emphasized by Song comes from building successful interpersonal relationships
