1. Describe: a) a control subject in a case-control study, 2. and b) a control subject in an experiment. You may want to describe their disease and/or exposure status. 3. Does "validity" indicate that a test or an instrument is accurate/correct? a. Yes b. No 4. The Healthy Worker Effect is an epidemiological concept that has shown that as a group, people who are employed are healthier than the general population. Because of this researchers must be alert to the...

2. Which of the following statements is TRUE (1 mark)? a) Selection bias can be reduced by increasing sample size. b) Loss to follow-up in a cohort study can bias findings either towards the null (reducing the magnitude of the true association) or the opposite (over-estimating the magnitude of the true association). c) Systematic error can be reduced by taking repeated measurements. d) Non-differential misclassification of exposure or outcome usually biases study findings away from the null (towards finding an...

Cohort study Categorize subjects on the basis of exposure and then follow up to see if they develop the health condition we are studying. 1. Generally used to explore rare diseases. Useful for exploring several risk factors for a given outcome. After some time compare the disease rate for the exposed with that of the unexposed. Generally used when the exposure is rare. 1 Useful when there...

Which statements are true, and which are false? Explain. Tor F Recall bias always results in an underestimate of the magnitude of association. Tor F Prospective cohort studies are prone to recall bias. Tor F Interviewer bias can produce either an over-estimate or under-estimate of the magnitude of association. Tor F Significant loss to follow up can cause an over-estimate or under-estimate of the magnitude of association in a prospective cohort study. Tor F Case-control studies are vulnerable to bias...
