Questions never refer to specific detail of individual studies (e. g. , sample size or statistical analysis) that are not important themselves: the exam covers 4 lectures (not the first one on sep. 8) and seven articles: There will be questions for all readings and there are more questions for longer articles. For each of the slide document on c-tools, there will be at least two questions that are not related to the readings but can be answered with the slides posted.
