This devaluation drastically raised the price of imported products. According to a survey conducted by AC Nielsen in April 2002, 68% of the consumers in Argentina were buying fewer products than before the devaluation, 24% were buying the same number of products, and 8% were buying more products. Furthermore, in a trend toward purchasing less-expensive brands, 88% indicated that they had changed the brands they purchased. Suppose the following complete set of results were reported.

Question 1 Using this 2 x 2 table, determine which of the following is the correct odds ratio. Exposure to variable of interest Existence of Disease designated as case (yes disease) or control (no) Case Control Yes exposed 27 23 50 No not exposed 20 24 44 Total 47 47 94 Answer 3.4 .54 .96 1.4 Question 2 . Which of the following statements about cumulative incidence and/or incidence density is true? Answer Incident density is also called the incidence rate. Both the incidence density and the cumulative incidence use number of people at risk for disease in the denominator, though their numerators are different. The numerator for incidence density is calculated in person-years. Cumulative incidence is usually larger than incidence density since the denominator is smaller. 1 points Question 3 1. Which of the following statements about prevalence and/or incidence is true? Answer You need to know the number of people at risk at the beginning of the year to calculate the prevalence. Incidence is based on a sample, while prevalence is based on a population. Prevalence is an estimate of the true incidence of disease in a population. You need to know the number of people at risk at the beginning of the year to calculate the cumulative incidence for that year. Question 4 Using this table, which of the following is the incidence density of whooping cough in year 2 in the population that was sampled, given that there were 190 people at risk after year 1? Number diagnosed When diagnosed Multiplier based on time of diagnosis Total Person-Years 2 1st quarter .25 .5 4 2nd quarter .50 2 3 3rd quarter .75 2.25 9 4.75 (Hint: Number left contributing 1 person year each is 190 ? 9 = 181) Answer .4% 4.8% .5% 1.9% Question 5 Using this 2 x 2 table, determine which of the following is the correct odds ratio. Exposure to variable of interest Existence of Disease designated as case (yes disease) or control (no) Case Control Yes exposed 34 29 63 No not exposed 31 36 67 Total 65 65 130 Answer .8 1.4 3.8 .5 Question 6 Using these numbers, which of the following is the cumulative incidence in year 2 of flu in the population that was sampled? Year Number at Risk New Cases 1 250 34 2 250 47 Answer 14% 19% 16% 8% Question 7 1. Using these numbers, which of the following is the prevalence of smoking in the population that was sampled? Total number respondents: 80,000 Number of respondents who smoke: 14,243 Answer .2 .17% 17% 7% 1 points Question 8 1. Which of the following statements about cumulative incidence and/or incidence density is true? Answer You cannot calculate either incidence density or cumulative incidence using a sample; you must use the whole population. Incidence density can be calculated using a sample but cumulative incidence cannot. Both incidence density and cumulative incidence can be calculated using a sample of the population. Both types of incidence are parameters, whereas prevalence is a statistic. 1 points Question 9 1. Using this 2 x 2 table, determi.
