Because people often don’t consider the amount the preform light activity such as walking or playing with children

128
Q

What can be barriers to frequency answers on questionnaires

Cons- expensive requires collection urine does not specify activity ie duration frequency

133
Q

What is an indirect calorimetry and what are the cons to it

A

Wear a mask and carry the equipment to measure expired air

wearing the mask stops people from engaging in PA the mask is cumbersome and expensive

134
Q

Q

1) What can we conclude from a cross sectional survey
2) what can’t we conclude
3) what is this approach good for

A

1) That they are correlated
2) the cause/effect or the relationship
3) generating a hypothesis not testing one

151
Q

What are problems with drawing conclusions based on cross sectional research

A

Correlation does not mean causation
The third variable problem- when two variables are related because they have a common connection to another (third variable)

152
Q

What are advantages and disadvantages of cross sectional surveys

A

Advantages - quick easy, generate hypothesis

Disadvantages- lack of relationship leaves no conclusion about causation and not appropriate for testing

153

Q

1) what can we conclude from case control studies
2) what can’t we conclude
3) when should it be used

A

1) if the proportion of cases with the risk factor is GREATER then the group who don’t then we can say that exposure to the risk factor is related to the disease
2) the risk factor exposure caused the disease
3) initial stage before spending bunch of money

155
Q

What are advantages and disadvantages of case control studies

A

Advantages - good for rare and slow diseases can study multiple risk factors it’s inexpensive and quick
Disadvantages- cannot determine absolute risk, bias, only one disease at a time,

156

Randomly select a group of people from a defined group (ie Has heart disease) and get info. Then follow over time and record incidence of disease or health outcome (track disease)
Calculate the difference in risk between those exposed and those not

157
Q

A

Random assignment of people into two groups the intervention group and the control group. The control group is exposed to nothing the intervention group is exposed to treatment and then compare the outcome to determine the difference

161
Q

What is the criteria for establishing cause and effect

A

1) the cause must precede the effect in time
2) the cause and the effect must be correlated with each other
3) the correlation between cause and effect can not be explained by another variable

162
Q

what can we conclude from a randomized trial

A

Whether the independent variable (the treatment) caused the dependent variable (the outcome)
