Imagine that you have interviewed a sample of 100 college students about their physical and mental health and high-risk behaviors. After collecting and analyzing data, you find that students who binge drank once or twice in the past month were 2 times likely to miss a class within the past month compared to those that did not binge drink at all. Furthermore, you find that those who binge drank three or four times in the past month were 5 times likely to miss a class compared to those who did not binge drink even once. In addition, those who binge drank more than 4 times in the past month were 10 times more likely to miss a class compared with those who never binge drank. In terms of Sir Bradford Hill’s criteria of causation, the observations from the three points above can be collectively described as evidence of __________________   a. dose-response relationship   b. consistency of association   c. temporality of association   d. strength of association
