Simulated data with uncontrolled confounding and exposure misclassification

Data containing two sources of bias, three known confounders, and 100,000 observations. This data is obtained from df_uc_em_source by removing the columns X and U. The resulting data corresponds to what a researcher would see in the real-world: a misclassified exposure, Xstar, and missing data on a confounder U. As seen in df_uc_em_source, the true, unbiased exposure-outcome odds ratio = 2.

Usage

df_uc_em

Format

outcome, 1 = present and 0 = absent

C1
