Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The odds ratio measures the impact on the odds of an event or outcome when there is a one-unit increase in an independent variable, holding all other variables constant. In other words, it measures the ratio of the odds of an event occurring in one group compared to another group, based on the change in a specific independent variable. The odds ratio considers the relationship between multiple independent variables simultaneously and how they affect the odds of the outcome. It does not isolate the impact of a one-unit increase in only one independent variable.
