Questions and Answers

Which two issues does aetiology confront?

  • Determinants of exposure and determinants of susceptibility
  • Determinants of exposure and determinants of incidence rate
  • Determinants of individual cases and determinants of susceptibility
  • Determinants of individual cases and determinants of incidence rate (correct)

    • When will case/control and cohort methods fail to detect a necessary agent?

  • When exposure to the necessary agent is heterogeneous within a population
  • When exposure to the necessary agent is homogeneous within a population (correct)
  • When the necessary agent is present in the population
  • When the necessary agent is not present in the population

    • What are the corresponding strategies in control for detecting a necessary agent?

  • The individual approach and the 'high-risk' approach
  • The individual approach and the population approach
  • The 'high-risk' approach and the population approach (correct)
  • The 'high-risk' approach and the individual approach
