Stratified Sampling Method01:16

Stratified Sampling Method

Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a stratified sample, divide the population into groups called strata and then take a...
Bias in Epidemiological Studies01:29

Bias in Epidemiological Studies

Biases can arise at various stages of research, from study design and data collection to analysis and interpretation. Recognizing and addressing these biases is essential to ensure the validity and reliability of epidemiological findings.Broadly speaking, biases in epidemiology fall into three main categories: selection bias, information bias, and confounding. A more detailed description of possible biases is:
Longitudinal Research02:20

Longitudinal Research

Sometimes we want to see how people change over time, as in studies of human development and lifespan. When we test the same group of individuals repeatedly over an extended period of time, we are conducting longitudinal research. Longitudinal research is a research design in which data-gathering is administered repeatedly over an extended period of time. For example, we may survey a group of individuals about their dietary habits at age 20, retest them a decade later at age 30, and then again...
Study Designs in Epidemiology01:20

Study Designs in Epidemiology

Epidemiological study designs are fundamental tools for investigating the distribution, determinants, and control of health conditions in populations. They help researchers understand the relationships between exposures and outcomes, and they broadly fall into two categories: "observational" and "experimental" studies.
Observational studies are those where the researcher does not intervene but rather observes natural variations. They include cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control studies.
Regression Toward the Mean01:52

Regression Toward the Mean

Regression toward the mean (ā€œRTMā€) is a phenomenon in which extremely high or low values—for example, and individual’s blood pressure at a particular moment—appear closer to a group’s average upon remeasuring. Although this statistical peculiarity is the result of random error and chance, it has been problematic across various medical, scientific, financial and psychological applications. In particular, RTM, if not taken into account, can interfere when researchers try to extrapolate results...
Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding01:25

Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding

Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...

Area of Science:

  • Population health research
  • Epidemiology
  • Health disparities

Background:

  • Broad demographic representation is crucial for generalizability in population-based research.
  • The RISE FOR HEALTH study (RISE) prioritized representation goals to enhance its findings.
  • Assessing the success of diversity strategies is key for future research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe strategies used to promote broad representation in the RISE FOR HEALTH study.
  • To compare RISE participants to the general U.S. population to evaluate representation.
  • To provide insights for improving diversity in future population-based studies.

Main Methods:

  • RISE employed probability sampling of adult women across 57 U.S. counties.
  • Strategies included stratified sampling for race, ethnicity, and age, and cultural/linguistic adaptations for Spanish speakers.
  • Marketing-style materials and community engagement were used to promote broader diversity.
  • Main Results:

    • 3,400 participants completed the baseline survey.
    • Participant race, ethnicity, and age mirrored the U.S. population due to stratified sampling.
    • Representation of Spanish as a primary language (4.4% vs. 12.9%) and high school or less education (13.8% vs. 35.9%) lagged behind U.S. averages.

    Conclusions:

    • Diversity promotion strategies in the RISE study showed variable success.
    • Specific strategies were effective in achieving racial, ethnic, and age representation.
    • Challenges remain in recruiting Spanish-speaking participants and those with lower educational attainment.
