Attributing effects to interactions.

Epidemiology (Cambridge, Mass.) - 1 Sept 2014

VanderWeele Tyler J, Tchetgen Tchetgen Eric J

Abstract excerpt

A framework is presented that allows an investigator to estimate the portion of the effect of one exposure that is attributable to an interaction with a second exposure. We show that when the 2 exposures are statistically independent in distribution, the total effect of one exposure can be decomposed into a conditional effect of that exposure when the second is absent and also a component due to interaction. The...
