* The calculation for CI is the number of incident cases divided by the population at risk so, for example, in the low anger group the crude (i.e., not adjusted for age or anything else) CI is 53 / 3,110 = 0.017, or 17 per 1,000 persons. Did you calculate the CI’s correctly? * Now let’s get a little practice calculating incidence rates (incidence densities). To do that we need data on person-years, which I have conveniently provided here by making them up. My hypothetical numbers are probably not far from the true ones, however, since I obtained them by multiplying the number of persons in
