This week in my Research Design course we're going to discuss Austin Bradford Hill's 1965 piece 'The environment and disease: association or causation?', which outlines nine principles for inferring causation from correlation. It's a cracker of a paper. ht
As Mervyn Susser once said "we have to practice believing" - recognizing the necessity and subjectivity of judgment. The humanist non-arithmetic vison of Austin Bradford Hill is an essential perspective. https://t.co/zLarhugvQU
"We weaken our capacity to interpret data and to take reasonable decisions whatever the value of P. And far too often we deduce ‘no difference’ from ‘no significant difference" - Bradford Hill, 1965 https://t.co/Fo000VGYoO

The environment and disease: association or causation? Sir Austin Bradford Hill #Epiclinic "el conjunto de evidencia debería usarse para decidir si existe alguna otra explicación más probable que la causa y el efecto" https://t.co/bMIAvTA3fX
@rupert_pearse @IainMoppett @AndersPerner @dannyjnwong @HSRCNews A nice opportunity to reflect on Bradford Hill’s criteria for a causal relationship….more than simply evidence of association from observational data! end/ https://t.co/LE4rhkda1C
Doesn’t it get tiresome when grant assessors keep asking you for proofs to show casual relationships? Well very few researchers know about this paper by AB Hill (the 9 rules) that will help you to keep your assessors happy. #Scientists https://t.co/w5HtR1
