Bias and confounding

 

Differentiate between bias and confounding. Discuss the criteria necessary to establish a factor as a
confounder and provide an example applying these criteria. What is one way to adjust for a confounding
relationship in the study design or the analysis?
Explain the two major types of bias. Identify a peer-reviewed epidemiology article that discusses potential
issues with bias as a limitation and discuss what could have been done to minimize the bias (exclude articles
that combine multiple studies such as meta-analysis and systemic review articles). What are the implications of
making inferences based on data with bias? Include a link to the article in your reference.
