The acronym 'qod' refers to what frequency?

  1. Every four days

  2. Every other day

  3. Quarterly

  4. Every day

The correct answer is: Every other day

QOD stands for 'Quality of Day' and refers to a mental health self-care practice where one reflects on their day and rates how it was in accordance with their values and goals. The options A, C, and D all represent specific intervals of time, whereas QOD is not associated with a fixed frequency but rather based on the individual's personal need and reflection. So, every four days, quarterly, or every day would not accurately represent the definition and use of QOD. Therefore, the correct answer is B Every other day.
