Statistical Proof of Causation is a methodological framework within legal and epidemiological analysis that uses statistical evidence to establish a causal relationship between a defendant's conduct and a plaintiff's injury in mass torts and product liability cases by quantifying the probability of harm arising from exposure to a specific agent or product.
