The strength of an association between exposure and disease is best measured by the: A. Incidence rate of disease in the exposed group B. Attributable risk C. Attributable fraction D. Population attributable risk E. Relative risk
Understand the Problem
The question is asking to identify the best measure of the strength of an association between exposure and disease from a list of options related to epidemiology.
Answer
Relative risk
The final answer is Relative risk.
