The 'well control' artefact in case/control studies of specific psychiatric disorders.

S Schwartz1, B G Link.   

Abstract

An appropriate choice of controls in case/control studies of specific psychiatric disorders is crucial for valid risk-factor assessment. One suggested approach to control-group selection, the use of a well control group, is the focus of this paper. While using well controls has intuitive appeal, this paper shows that such a procedure can lead to ambiguous and biased results.
