This study has dealt with three kinds of epidemological concepts through critical review of public health literatures. They are as follow: risk epidemiology, exposure-disease epidemiology and health promotion epidemiology.
@ES 1. Concept of the risk epidemiology:
Firstly, diseases are the result of the exposure to risk factors.
Secondly, risk epidemiologists seek after the risk factors of disease. Thirdly, the typical measure of risk epidemiological association is the relative risk.
@ES 2. Concept of the exposure-disease epidemiology:
@EN Fistly, diseases are associated with the exposure to the factors of risk, cure, prevention or health promotion.
Secondly, exposure-diseases epidemiologists seek after the association between diseases and thr factors of risk, cure, prevention of health promotion.
Thirdly, the representative measure of exposure-disease epidemiological association is the relative disease.
@ES 3. Concept of the health promotion epidemiology:
@EN Firstly, health is the result of the exposure to the factors of healthpromotion, prevention or cure.
Secondly, health promotion epidemiologists seek after the preventive, curative or health promotion factors of health.
Thirdly, the exemplary measure of health promotion epidemiological associantion is relative health.
