Was the population studied “fixed” or “open” (check all that apply)?A “fixed” population is one where the population is fixed at some time and the sameparticipants are followed over time. An open population is where individuals can come inand out of the study. In a worksite population, the intervention happens at some point anddifferent individuals can contribute information before and after the intervention (new hires).In most cases the population will be either fixed or open. However in a small number ofstudies it may be that a fixed cohort is drawn from a larger open population study.Fixed PopulationOpen PopulationUnclear“Administrative” Record Questions26.
