Again the correlation vs causation question? May be higher stress levels are caused by allergies?
- smackay 15y agoStress, at least in family groups, is highly contagious hence the emphasis on Psychosocial factors in the article. It is certainly worth exploring in more detail however.
- arnoooooo 15y agoKnowing other factors in allergy development like air pollution, it's also very likely that both share a common outside cause.
- scott_s 15y agoNotice that they never said caused. Finding correlation is the first step towards establishing causation. I don't see any problems with this research.
