What effect does decreased food particle size have on intake?
Increases it - as faster passage through GIT
Digestibility may decrease due to the speed though

What is the accuracy of the study?
whether the relative risk you have come up with is the true relative risk of the population - can never really know
What are the three types of descriptive study?
Case reports
Case series
Survey
What are the three types of analytical epidemiological study?
Cohort
Case control
Cross sectional
What is the power of a study?
The chance that you will see the effect through your study if the alternate hypothesis is true i.e how well can your study demonstrate the effect. Helps to have larger sample size.
What is the precision?
Precise studies are free of random error - their results are fairly cohesive. The smaller your 95% Ci the more precise. Usually helps to have bigger sample size
What is the 95% CI?
The 95% chance that the real population parameter falls within this range.

Selection
Information
Confounding
