Yea, this is a really big problem. The way you define the sample in the first place affects the outcome hugely. This is a problem in any field...
I prefer the idea of a biosocial model. Consider the person's social/environmental situation, and if its not optimal for health (e.g. damp house,...
Granted, but we're talking about when you don't know the aetiology yet, and you probably won't know it till you've got more evidence, but you...
