Be sure to include relevant research and examples. 2) Discuss methods of research in health psychology. What methods do health researchers employ, and what is the purpose of this research? Which methods are superior and why? Why is it that all health topics cannot be researched the same way? Which methods are appropriate for which types of questions? 3) Select two of the following systems: immune system, nervous system, endocrine system, cardiovascular system, digestive system, reproductive system, or cardiovascular system. Discuss how these two systems interact with each other in order to maintain health. Discuss the factors that can negatively influence each of the two systems to produce illness.
