Outdoor exposure to cold is of particular interest for regions in high latitude environments where winter seasons last for several months (for example Finland with winter lasting for 3-7 months (Makinen, 2007)). The degree of exposure to cold is dependent on several factors such as occupation, gender, age, health, exercise activity, and education (Makinen, 2007). Exposure to cold thermal environment, increased muscular strain, different musculoskeletal complains and symptoms are common (Juha Oksa, Ducharme, Rintamaki, 2002). The cooling of the tissues leads to discomfort, deterioration of performance and finally to work accidents (Makinen Hassi, 2009).

The majority of people who smoke never develop lung cancer. Genetic risk factors may predispose certain smokers to lung cancer. After adjustments for age, smoke exposure, occupation, and gender, relatives of a lung cancer patient have approximately a twofold risk of developing lung cancer. The... 

Although Zuckerman (1988) later concludes that science appears to exhibit some of the same structures of discrimination as other occupations, she cautions that available data at the time suggest that the scientific community is marked by an intense commitment to achievement over ascription. She contends that her thorough review of the relevant literature reveals a lack of compelling evidence of discrimination in the American scientific community. Today, few scholars of the social studies of science accept this view. White women have, without a doubt, made substantial progress in science careers over the last two decades. Nonetheless, in many areas, full gender equity still remains elusive (Long, 2001). 

Intraspecies differences refer to variability among humans. They arise from genetic polymorphism and differences in age, gender, health, and nutritional status. The assessment factor for intraspecies differences in the general population is usually assumed to be greater than in the occupational subpopulation, which excludes the very young and very old.

The NovaScan has received substantial testing in a number of laboratory and applied settings. Performance on the NovaScan has been demonstrated to be sensitive to the effects of alcohol, marijuana, diazepam, amphetamine, scopolamine, and an over-the-counter antihistamine.6 59 60 In addition, epidemiological differences in performance associated with gender, age, and occupation have been considered. Variations of the testing paradigm have been used in a number of commercial settings.

This initial stage is a simple reporting of the results for each question in isolation. Some of the questions will produce naturally categorical results and we can simply report the number of respondents who select each possible answer. Gender, occupation, area of residence, etc., fall naturally into this pattern. Other responses such as age, which are essentially continuous variables, may also be broken up into bands as described in Section 19.2.1.
