The implementation of key rotation can vary depending on the specific context of the epidemiological study. However, common methods include:
1. Rotating Personnel: Regularly changing the individuals responsible for data collection and analysis to prevent personal biases from influencing the results. 2. Rotating Data Collection Tools: Using different instruments or methodologies to collect data to mitigate the risk of tool-specific biases. 3. Rotating Sampling Locations: Altering the geographic or demographic areas from which samples are collected to ensure a representative sample.
