| Abstract: |
Bias enters health studies at all stages and often influences the magnitude and direction of results. To obtain the least biased information, researchers must acknowledge the potential presence of biases and take steps to avoid and minimise their effects. Equally, in assessing the results of studies, we must be aware of the different types of biases, their potential impact and how this affects interpretation and use of evidence in healthcare decision making.
To better understand the persistent presence, diversity, and impact of biases, we are compiling a Catalogue of Bias, stemming from original work by David Sackett. The entries are a work in progress and describe a wide range of biases – outlining their potential impact in research studies.
The Catalogue of Bias Collaboration started in June 2017 with a meeting at the Harbour Hotel, Bristol. The first pages were posted in December 2017, and a launch event was held in Oxford at the Practice of Evidence-Based Healthcare module on the 17th January 2018. In 2019 we moved our away day meetings to Ettington Park, in Stratford. We continually refine and update this resource. |
