Absolutely. From my perspective, there are three conditions that must be met to establish a causal relationship between late-life depression and sleep disruption among older adults. First, there must be a correlation between the two factors. Second, depression should occur prior to sleep problems. Third, there should be no other factor that can account for sleep disturbance. If these conditions are met, we can confidently assert that late-life depression causes sleep disruption.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
