Assumption Trade-Offs When Choosing Identification Strategies for Pre-Post Treatment Effect Estimation: An Illustration of a Community-Based Intervention in Madagascar

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2015
Failure (or success) in finding a statistically significant effect of a large-scale intervention may be due to choices made in the evaluation. To highlight the potential limitations and pitfalls of some common identification strategies used for ...

Estimation of Average Treatment Effects with Misclassification [PDF]

open access: yesEconometrica, 2007
This paper considers identification and estimation of the effect of a mismeasured binary regressor in a nonparametric or semiparametric regression, or the conditional average effect of a binary treatment or policy on some outcome where treatment may be misclassified.

Testing Local Average Treatment Effect Assumptions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Review of Economics and Statistics, 2017
In this paper, we propose an easy-to-implement procedure to test the key conditions for the identification and estimation of the local average treatment effect (LATE; Imbens & Angrist, 1994). We reformulate the testable implications of LATE assumptions as two conditional inequalities, which can be tested in the intersection bounds framework of ...

Semiparametric Single-Index Estimation for Average Treatment Effects

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2022
We propose a semiparametric method to estimate the average treatment effect under the assumption of unconfoundedness given observational data. Our estimation method alleviates misspecification issues of the propensity score function by estimating the single-index link function involved through Hermite polynomials.

Propensity Score Matching: should we use it in designing observational studies?

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology
Background Propensity Score Matching (PSM) stands as a widely embraced method in comparative effectiveness research. PSM crafts matched datasets, mimicking some attributes of randomized designs, from observational data.
