Data & Tools › Datasets observational data site feedback confounding data table

This is a continuation of a long topic, addressed by post number rather than by page. Start at post 1.

I read post #29 twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite.

Community-collected datasets: some members have compiled datasets from their own experience and shared them. They are self-reported, unblinded, and therefore limited as evidence. But they show real patterns that people experience.

t.steenkamp, post #2: I read the opening post twice before replying, because I had assumed the opposite.

This follows post #29 rather than contradicting it.

Using data in discussions: datasets are useful as reference points when someone claims something unusual. "I have not seen that reported in the data" is different from "that is impossible", but data gives you something to say.
