An early study found that postal workers who worked in the office had higher rates of coronary heart disease than those who delivered mail on foot. The investigators concluded that physical activity is inversely related to risk of developing coronary heart disease. Sceptics disagreed, pointing out that the postal clerks were older than the postal carriers, and that is a risk factor for coronary heart disease. This argument highlights the possible age role of: a) Chance b) Selection bias c) Recall bias d) Confounding
