Abstract Exposures to electric or magnetic fields (including microwaves), in residential or occupational settings, have been reported to be associated with health problems, particularly cancer and reproductive mishaps. Misconceptions about these alleged effects continue to be published in the medical and scientific literature, as well as in popular press reports. This paper is the third in a series of papers challenging invalid statements relating to these alleged effects. Reports dealing with epidemiologic studies (including exposure assessment, consistency, and public policy implications), the use of biomarkers, and risk assessment are analyzed. Key Words: Electromagnetic fields, Epidemiology, Cancer, Reproduction.
