Confounder-Equivalence in DAG-based Confounder-Selection – Results of a Simulation Study

Introduction: Adjustment for confounding variables in observational studies is still the most essential task faced by epidemiological researchers. In 1999 Greenland et al. proposed the DAG (directed acyclic graph)-approach as a non-parametric tool for confounder identification in epidemiology. This...
