Self-reported ill health in male UK Gulf War veterans: a retrospective cohort study
Published 2004-07-01“…Many studies of post-Gulf morbidity are based on relatively small sample sizes and selection bias is often a concern. In a setting where selection bias relating to the ill health of veterans may be reduced, we: i) examined self-reported adult ill health in a large sample of male UK Gulf War veterans and a demographically similar non-deployed comparison group; and ii) explored self-reported ill health among veterans who believed that they had Gulf War syndrome.…”

Exploiting the Relationship between Farm-Level Yields and County-Level Yields for Applied Analysis
Published 2014-08-01“…County-level yield data are used in applied research and crop insurance policy in place of farm-level yield data, which are likely sparse, not broadly representative, and subject to selection bias. We exploit the fact that county-level yields are the aggregate of farm-level yields to derive bounds that can be reduced to direct relationships between county- and farm-level yields under certain conditions. …”
