Correct option is A) True
Specific Rates :-
Measure morbidity and mortality for particular populations or for particular diseases. Refer to a particular subgroup of the population defined in terms of race, age, sex, or single cause of death or illness
Specific rates differ from crude rates in that they are based on particular subgroups of the...
Crude rates refer to: a specific age group. a specific gender. the total population. the total population of one ethnicity.
The general fertility rate is similar to the crude birth rate but more refined. O A. True OB. False
1. If the stratum specific relative risks show a similar association between exposure and disease and these are different from the crude association, then confounding is present. Group of answer choices True False 2. The ability to generalize the study results to a larger population is known as Group of answer choices internal validity external validity confounding 3. Exclusion bias is a form of Group of answer choices confounding information bias selection bias non-response bias
Why might crude death rates be misleading? What is SMR? Can SMR of one population be compared to SMR of another population? In the indirect method, what data from the reference (standard) population is used?

what are the two fundamental reasons why a sample mean may differ from a particular population mean, why we may get significant results?
Differentiate crude (population) density from ecological (population) density. Taking into consideration these definitions, suppose you were given the task of estimating the density of two plant species in the field. Based on the life histories of the two species, you expect that the spatial distribution of one os the species is approximately uniform, whereas the other is likely to be clumped. How might your approach to estimating the density of these two species differ?
Which of the following rates is a summary measure based on the actual number of events that occur in a population during a given time period? A. Crude rate B. Mortality rate C. General fertility rate D. None of the above
True or False? If the adjusted measure of association is different from the crude measure for more than 10%, confounder is present and the adjusted measure of association should be reported.
