Joe Mama wants to do an observational study comparing height and weight. He also does a study comparing weight and calories consumed daily. He concludes that the more calories you consume, the more you weigh. And people who weigh more are generally taller. Therefore, if you eat more, you will get taller. Why is this incorrect?
Causation from one observational study cannot be extrapolated and applied to another
Correlation does not indicate causation
He is ignoring the lurking variable of age
He did not have a control group
