Hi, just wondering if this sentence just below figure 2.9 is correct? "Conversely, suppose the relationship between net use and the unmeasured confounder is very strong, with a mean scaled difference of 5. In that case, the confounder-malaria relationship only needs to be 5. "

Should it be 2.5?

Thanks!

Typo! It's pulling from the wrong column programmatically. Should be fixed soon.

Thanks!
