Based on your literature review, cholesterol level is associated with obesity (exposure). it is also associated with coronary heart disease (outcome). cholesterol level is: group of answer choices a. an effect modifier b. a potential confounder c. a confounder d. a random error

b. A potential confounder

Explanation:

Based on the information provided it can be said that in this scenario Cholesterol Level can be classified as a potential confounder. This term means that it is something that may occur from an exposure and may lead to a certain outcome, but may be one of many confounders that may arise from a specific exposure. Such as is illustrated in the picture attached below.

the members of alcoholic anonymous aren't required to disclose their last names.

low context culture   (lc.):

association:    

relationships begin and end quickly. many people can be inside one's circle; circle's boundary is not clear.

things get done by following procedures and paying attention to the goal.

one's identity is rooted in oneself and one's accomplishments.

social structure is decentralized; responsibility goes further down (is not concentrated at the top).

interaction:

low use of nonverbal elements. message is carried more by words than by nonverbal means.

verbal message is explicit. context is less important than words.

verbal message is direct; one spells things out exactly.

communication is seen as a way of exchanging information, ideas, and opinions.  

disagreement is depersonalized. one withdraws from conflict with another and gets on with the task. focus is on rational solutions, not personal ones. one can be explicit about another's bothersome behavior.

territoriality:

space is compartmentalized and privately owned; privacy is important, so people are farther apart.

temporality:

things are scheduled to be done at particular times, one thing at a time. what is important is that activity is done efficiently.

change is fast. one can make change and see immediate results.

time is a commodity to be spent or saved. one’s time is one’s own.

learning:

reality is fragmented and compartmentalized. one source of information is used to develop knowledge. thinking is inductive, proceeds from specific to general. focus is on detail.

learning occurs by following explicit directions and explanations of others.

an individual orientation is preferred for learning and problem solving.

speed is valued. how efficiently something is learned is important.
