Problem: Association and causation. Find an example of a study in which the issue of association and causation is present. This can be either an example in which association is confused with causation or an example in which the association is not confused with causation. Summarize the study and its conclusions in your own words. Be sure to include either a copy of the actual article or at least the Web source, title, and where the article was published. The Chance News Web site at www.causeweb.org/wiki/chance/ index.php/Main_Page is a good place to look for examples.
