Cohort Study Just as in the controlled trial, the epidemiologist is also on the train during the entire journey. But there is an important difference. The epidemiologist is not telling passengers what to do. Rather, the epidemiologist is just observing them and counting. Passengers are not being told to have or not have an exposure, they are just living their normal lives. The epidemiologist, on the ride for the whole journey, just keeps observing everyone’s exposures and whether or not they develop the disease during the journey.

The epidemiologist is not on the journey. Rather, the epidemiologist is waiting at the train station at the end of the journey. As passengers get off the train, the epidemiologist selects sick passengers for the case group and selects passengers who are similar but not sick for the control group. The epidemiologist then asks each person in the case group and control group questions about their exposures during the train ride. The epidemiologist relies on passengers’ memories of their exposures that occurred during the train ride.

Then the epidemiologist leaves the train and goes home to analyze the data from that particular day. The journey continues without the epidemiologist.

Habits of Mind Research on thinking and behavior reveals some identifiable characteristics of effective thinkers. It is not necessarily scientists, artists, mathematicians, or the wealthy who demonstrate these behaviors. They have been found in mechanics, teachers, entrepreneurs, salespeople, and parents - people in all walks of life. The following habits of mind can be included in project outcomes and assessed through self-reflection, journals, discussions, and rubrics. Adapted from A. L. Costa and B. Kallick, eds., Discovering and Exploring Habits of Mind (Alexandria, Virginia: Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development, 2000) Handout

The goal of every epidemiological study is to harvest valid and precise information about the relationship between an exposure and a disease in a population. The various study designs merely represent different ways of harvesting this information. Essentials in Epidemiology in Public Health Ann Aschengrau and George R.
