Question

Upon further study, it was found that there were some inaccuracies in the measurement of the outcome in the scenario in Question 1. In total, 5 of the exposed workers who were classified as having leukemia were in fact diagnosed with some other form of illness, and not leukemia. Among the non-exposed workers, all of those who were diagnosed with leukaemia were correctly diagnosed. In addition, 12 more cases were identified among the non-exposed. Identify whether this will create differential or non differential misclassification of the day and provide a brief explanation using the information in this example.
