Topics covered: measures of disease frequency and association, standardization and misclassification, observational study designs, confounding and effect modification, causal reasoning and diagrams<\/p>\n

By means of lectures, exercises and skills training sessions the following topics in observational research will be covered extensively: observational research designs and their advantages and disadvantages (case-control studies, cohort studies, nested case-control and case-cohort designs, and cross-sectional research); measures of disease frequency and association; choosing among designs; exposure measurement in observational research and potential misclassification; sources of bias in various designs (selection bias, confounding, and information bias); quantification of methodological phenomena such as confounding and effect modification, including stratified and matched analyses; standardization; causal reasoning and causal diagrams; and reporting guidelines for observational research.<\/p>\n
