In epidemiological research, recall bias is a systematic error caused by differences in the accuracy or completeness of the recollections retrieved ("recalled") by study participants regarding events or experiences from the past. (wikipedia.org)
The UK Biobank participants do not represent the entire population of the country, with a healthy volunteer selection bias previously reported. (medscape.com)
This includes recall bias (meaning the participants could have misremembered a depressive episode), study size, and study duration. (medicalnewstoday.com)
Since the 1999-2000 survey cycle, participants completed a 24-hour dietary recall (First Day ) interview during their health examination in the mobile examination center. (cdc.gov)
Beginning with the 2002-2003 cycle, all participants were asked to complete a second 24-hour dietary recall (Second Day ) interview 3 to 10 days after the first recall. (cdc.gov)
Outcomes4
While data collection on inputs is relatively straightforward, collecting data and measuring process and outcomes is complex and subject to errors or biases. (futurelearn.com)
Two outcomes (ie, forgetting and over-recalling) were examined in relation to several personal and occupational characteristics. (cdc.gov)
On the other hand, systematic error or bias reflects a problem of validity of the study and arises because of any error resulting from methods used by the investigator when recruiting individuals for the study, from factors affecting the study participation (selection bias) or from systematic distortions when collecting information about exposures and outcomes (information bias) . (karger.com)
The idea that low or high IQ predicts worse or more favorable health outcomes remains disputed in large part due to sampling bias and limitations in study sizes. (medicalnewstoday.com)
Sampling methods1
Standardising sampling methods can help to avoid needing recall information in the first place. (wikipedia.org)
Exposure1
There were suggestions of an increased risk of glioma, and much less so meningioma, at the highest exposure levels … However, biases and errors limit the strength of the conclusions we can draw from these analyses and prevent a causal interpretation. (popsci.com)
Questionnaires3
Recall bias is a type of measurement bias, and can be a methodological issue in research involving interviews or questionnaires. (wikipedia.org)
The dietary interview has included 24-hour dietary recalls, food frequency questionnaires, and dietary supplement use questionnaires. (cdc.gov)
Inaccurate2
However, conventional longitudinal evaluation of change may not agree with patient perceived change if patients' understanding of the subjective construct under evaluation changes over time (response shift) or if patients' have inaccurate recollection (recall bias). (biomedcentral.com)
May be biased by inaccurate numerator and/or denominator data. (who.int)
Selection bias2
In this article, we focus on two categories of bias: selection bias and information bias. (karger.com)
Bias is any error resulting from methods used by the investigator to recruit individuals for the study, from factors affecting the study participation (selection bias) or from systematic distortions when collecting information about exposures and diseases (information bias) . (karger.com)
Measurement error1
Methods are needed to minimise measurement error which may be introduced by participation bias, recall and comprehension problems, and respondents' willingness to report sensitive and sometimes socially censured attitudes or behaviours. (bmj.com)
Symptoms3
Prior pain status was over-recalled by 37% of those with upper-extremity pain at the time of recall, but only by 3% of those without symptoms. (cdc.gov)
Over-recalling was related to age, having current symptoms, or being a clinical case. (cdc.gov)
CONCLUSIONS: Prior musculoskeletal symptoms are poorly remembered after some years, and the recall is strongly influenced by current symptoms. (cdc.gov)
Study3
METHODS: In this prospective study (1992-1998), among a cohort of automobile manufacturing workers (N=464), musculoskeletal pain reported at baseline was compared with recalled pain at follow-up. (cdc.gov)
The internal validity, i.e. the characteristic of a clinical study to produce valid results, can be affected by random and systematic (bias) errors. (karger.com)
Such recall bias can affect the results of a study like this. (harvard.edu)
Accuracy1
The authors investigated how well people in a workplace recalled their prior musculoskeletal pain and which factors influenced recall accuracy. (cdc.gov)
Conclusions1
The Interphone authors once again cite bias as preventing any firm conclusions about the effects of long-term use: "The possible effects of long-term heavy use of mobile phones on risk of brain tumors require further investigation," the paper states, "given increasing mobile phone use, its extension to children and its penetration world-wide. (popsci.com)
Errors2
This result is in line with the majority of other published studies, which also observed no increased risk of brain tumors in association with cell phone radiation and cite biases and errors in those studies that do show a correlation. (popsci.com)
Erratum: How well do people recall risk factor test results? (nau.edu)
Relevant epidemiologic studies, however, have provided conflicting results, and many are flawed by recall bias. (nih.gov)
Infant1
For countries with survey data, since infant mortality rates from birth histories of surveys are exposed to recall biases, infant mortality is derived from the projection of under-five mortality rates converted into infant mortality rates using the Bayesian B-splines bias-adjusted model. (who.int)
Potential1
Those in the case group (those with breast cancer) may be able to recall a greater number of potential risk factors they had been exposed to than those in the control group (women unaffected by breast cancer). (wikipedia.org)
People1
Self-positivity bias refers to the tendency of people to consider themselves as more fortunate than others. (acrwebsite.org)
Studies3
Recall bias is of particular concern in retrospective studies that use a case-control design to investigate the etiology of a disease or psychiatric condition. (wikipedia.org)
We report three studies examining self-positivity in encoding, processing and recall of risk information in the context of health risk judgments. (acrwebsite.org)
Research2
In the present research, we (a) present a first empirical test of biased retrieval of risk information, and (b) argue that self-positivity begins with biased encoding and biased processing of information. (acrwebsite.org)

Levels1
In contrast, OEVs and objective data tend to differ in levels - potentially due to psychological bias. (repec.org)
Avoid1
Use of hospital records rather than patient experience can also help to avoid recall bias. (wikipedia.org)
Report1
For example, a person with acne who strongly believes that diet affects their skin health may be more likely than others to recall and report certain elements of their diet (such as fatty or sugary foods) than those who are more skeptical about a connection. (harvard.edu)
Change4
It also investigated this level of agreement after adjusting patient perceived change for recall bias that patients may have experienced. (biomedcentral.com)
Three methods of change score calculation were used (conventional change, patient perceived change and patient perceived change adjusted for recall bias). (biomedcentral.com)
For agreement between conventional longitudinal change and patient perceived change adjusted for recall bias: ICCs were 0.98 and 0.90 respectively. (biomedcentral.com)
To overcome the invalidating effect of response shift (on conventional change) and recall bias (on patient perceived change) a method of adjusting patient perceived change for recall bias has been described. (biomedcentral.com)
Memory1
Defining intelligence is also a complicated task, and it involves memory recall, rational thinking, and decision-making. (medicalnewstoday.com)
Response1
It is sometimes also referred to as response bias, responder bias or reporting bias. (wikipedia.org)
Data3
To correct non-representative biases characterising the online data, by using census data and the representative samples we develop a reconstruction method to provide a scalable, cheap, and flexible way to dynamically obtain closer-to-representative contact matrices. (nature.com)
For detailed information on 24-hour dietary recall collection methods, see Dietary Interviewer Procedure Manuals located under "Contents in Detail" , provided within each survey cycle data file. (cdc.gov)
The 24-hour recall data are captured in four files . (cdc.gov)
Large1
A large proportion of this disagreement could be attributed to recall bias. (biomedcentral.com)
Time1
To minimize recall bias, some clinical trials have adopted a "wash out period", i.e., a substantial time period that must elapse between the subject's first observation and their subsequent observation of the same event. (wikipedia.org)
