Cohort study methods

Cohort effect

The term cohort effect is used in social science to describe variations in the characteristics of an area of study (such as the incidence of a characteristic or the age at onset) over time among individuals who are defined by some shared temporal experience or common life experience, such as year of birth, or year of exposure to radiation. Cohort effects are important to epidemiologists searching for patterns in illnesses. Certain illnesses may be socially affected via the anticipation phenomenon, and cohort effects can be an indicator of this sort of phenomenon. Cohort effects are important to resource dependency, and economics theorists when these groups affect structures of influence within their larger organizations. Cohorts in organizations are often defined by entry or birth date, and they retain some common characteristic (size, cohesiveness, competition) that can affect the organization. For example, cohort effects are critical issues in school enrollment. In order to determine whether a cohort effect is present, a researcher may conduct a cohort study. (Wikipedia).

The Coriolis Effect

The Coriolis effect says that anytime you're rotating—whether it's on a playground toy or your home planet—objects moving in straight lines will appear to curve. This bizarre phenomenon affects many things, from the paths of missiles to the formation of hurricanes. You may have heard that

What is the Coriolis Effect?

Centrifugal force is not the only fictitious force to rear its ugly head in a rotating frame of reference. There's another one called the Coriolis force that affects moving things and it makes things even weirder. Video Links: Centrifugal Force Does NOT Exist! http://youtu.be/zHpAifN_2Sw

AWESOME Physics demonstration. Coriolis effect (explained)!!!

The Coriolis effect refers to the apparent deflection of objects (such as airplanes, wind, missiles, and ocean currents) moving in a straight path relative to the Earth's surface. Its strength is proportional to the speed of the Earth's rotation at different latitudes. For example, a plane
