Researchers conducted a prospective cohort study to assess the association between dietary supplements and cognitive ability among children. A total of 500 children age 12-17 years who take an omega-3 fatty acid supplement are compared with 500 children age 12-17 years who do not take an omega-3 fatty acid supplement. Researchers follow the children for 2 years. During this time, 300 children who take the supplement earn what is classified as a “high” score on a cognitive test while 200 children who do not take the supplement earn what is classified as a “high” score on the same cognitive test.

- You have been hired as a consultant by building contractor, who have been sued by the owners' representatives of a large condominium project for shoddy construction work. In order to assess the damages for the various units, the owners' association sent out a letter to owners and asked if people were willing to make their units available for destructive testing. Destructive testing was conducted in some of these units as a result of the responses. Based on the tests, the owners' association inferred the damage over the entire condo complex. Do you think that the inference is valid in this case? a). No, the inference is not valid. It is an example of sample selection bias because owners whose units were relatively more damaged were more likely to make theor units available for destructive testing. b). No, the inference is not valid because not all units were tested. c). Yes, the inference is valid.
