Yes, I'll have to revise that example. Thanks!

Thanks! Sure, the issue is more when the descriptive within-strata question accidentally turns into a "what if" question.

This is incredible! Thank you so much, I'll use it in my classes!

This is fantastic!! The message is communicated so clearly, both via words and visuals. After reading this, I immediately added it to my grad stats syllabus. Thank you!!

Thank you for this great blog! I think "descriptive" means giving average measures or distributions of an outcome in one group. If you compare groups (defined by an exposure) in terms of an outcome it's analytical regardless of the method, adjusted or not. Maybe that's a bit extreme. Unsure!

This is excellent! I wish all teaching materials were like this. 👍

This is great! Will bookmark for teaching

Socrates strikes again.

To people 100 years in the future, the research we‘re doing now will look much sillier than the research from 100 years ago looks to us now.

Trying out Svelte for the first time here btw, really like it so far. Not sure why I didn't switch years ago.

2/2 Even in the example from your text (adjusting for age difference for comparasion of between-group morbidity) there is some what-if idea behind. But maybe I lack creativity.

Excellent post and nice summary at the end! The plot in the GIF is particularly nice.

Oh you'll get another chance – unfortunately 😅

Glad you like!

Mostly after failing to convince people in person using verbal means ;) And thank you!
