Learning Heterogeneity in Causal Inference Using Sufficient Dimension Reduction

open access: yesJournal of Causal Inference, 2019
Often the research interest in causal inference is on the regression causal effect, which is the mean difference in the potential outcomes conditional on the covariates. In this paper, we use sufficient dimension reduction to estimate a lower dimensional

Sensitivity analysis for causal effects with generalized linear models

open access: yes, 2022
Residual confounding is a common source of bias in observational studies. In this article, we build upon a series of sensitivity analyses methods for residual confounding developed by Brumback et al. and Chiba whose sensitivity parameters are constructed

Beliefs and actions in the trust game : Creating instrumental variables to estimate the causal effect [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In many economic contexts, an elusive variable of interest is the agent’s belief about relevant events, e.g. about other agents’ behavior. A growing number of surveys and experiments ask participants to state beliefs explicitly but little is known about ...

The Causal Effects of Father Absence [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Sociology, 2013
The literature on father absence is frequently criticized for its use of cross-sectional data and methods that fail to take account of possible omitted variable bias and reverse causality. We review studies that have responded to this critique by employing a variety of innovative research designs to identify the causal effect of father absence ...

Causal effective field theories

open access: yesPhysical Review D, 2022
Physical principles such as unitarity, causality, and locality can constrain the space of consistent effective field theories (EFTs) by imposing two-sided bounds on the allowed values of Wilson coefficients. In this paper, we consider the bounds that arise from the requirement of low-energy causality alone, without appealing to any assumptions about UV
