The ratio of the probability of disease in an exposed group to the probability of disease in an unexposed group is called the: 1. Relative risk 2. Odds ratio 3. Risk difference 4. Attributable risk

Solution

The ratio of the probability of disease in an exposed group to the probability of disease in an unexposed group is called relative risk.

RR=P(diseased/exposed)/P(diseased/unexposed)
