Matched design for marginal causal effect on restricted mean survival time in observational studies
Investigating the causal relationship between exposure and time-to-event outcome is an important topic in biomedical research. Previous literature has discussed the potential issues of using hazard ratio (HR) as the marginal causal effect measure due to ...

The Effects of Marginal Deviations on Behavioral Development [PDF]
This investigation was conceptually framed within the theory of marginal deviations ( Caprara & Zimbardo, 1996 ) and sought evidence for the general hypothesis that some children who initially show marginal behavioral problems may, over time, develop more serious problems depending partly on other personal and behavioral characteristics.

Evaluating Marginal Policy Changes and the Average Effect of Treatment for Individuals at the Margin [PDF]
This paper develops methods for evaluating marginal policy changes. We characterize how the effects of marginal policy changes depend on the direction of the policy change, and show that marginal policy effects are fundamentally easier to identify and to estimate than conventional treatment parameters.

Marginal Interventional Effects
Conventional causal estimands, such as the average treatment effect (ATE), capture how the mean outcome in a population or subpopulation would change if all units were assigned to treatment versus control. Real-world policy changes, however, are often incremental, changing treatment status for only a small segment of the population -- those at or near ...

Effective Marginal Tax Rates in Australia [PDF]
The households included in the 1988-89 ABS Household Expenditure Survey were grouped according to size, degree of labour force participation, and weekly household private income. Households at similar levels of income were then compared to determine the effect on disposable income of a small increase in labour market earnings, resulting in higher taxes
