- taneq 3y agoStatistics isn't my strong suit but as I understand adjustment for covariates then it's a linear remapping of the sample data. If that's right then strongly nonlinear confounding factors (as, for instance, I'd expect wealth to be) would still affect the outcomes even after being "adjusted for". Happy to be set straight on this if I've misunderstood!
