This video walks through two examples of calculating the relative risk, odds ratio, and risk difference statistics.

Note that the relative risk is also called the risk ratio, excess risk, or attributable risk.

These values are often used in epidemiology and public heath studies to examine how a risk factor is associated with having a focal outcome, typically a disease.

The video also calculates confidence intevals for the relative risk, confidence intevals for the odds ratio, and confidence intevals for the risk difference.

This is the video that answers the questions:
