选项 A.imagined
B.denied
C.doubted
D.calculated
答案 D
解析 此处考察上下文的词义辨析能力。上文提到这种效应的正向作用，文中指出and the researchers____that the stress-reducing effects of hugging____32 percent of that beneficial effect.空格所在句子前有一个and，这是顺接的并列递进关系，空格后面出现数字,所以此句子还是延续上文的基调，更进一步的用具体数字体现这种正向作用。因此排除负向词汇B.denied否认C.doubt怀疑，A.imagined.想象，实验是不能选择想象的。只能是测量计算得出，因此正确答案为D选项。
