Causal diagrams and multivariate analysis I: A quiver full of arrows

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

How do we know which variables we should include in our multivariate analyses? What role does each variable play in our understanding of the analysis? In this article I begin a discussion of these issues and describe 2 different types of studies for which this problem must be handled in different ways.
