A Joint Test of Unconfoundedness and Common Trends
ABSTRACT We introduce an overidentification test of two alternative assumptions to identify the average treatment effect on the treated in a two‐period panel data setting: unconfoundedness and common trends. Under unconfoundedness, treatment assignment and post‐treatment outcomes are independent, conditional on control variables and pre‐treatment ...

Undersmoothing Causal Estimators With Generative Trees
Average causal effects are averages of (heterogeneous) individual treatment effects (ITEs) taken over the entire target population. The estimation of average causal effects has been studied in depth, but averages are insufficient for more individualised ...

ABSTRACT The ability of organisms to effectively respond to challenges is critical for survival. We investigated how an acute stressor affected corticosterone, mitochondrial function, and DNA oxidative damage in a wild population of Leach's storm‐petrels (Hydrobates leucorhous).

Cougar density on the Oregon Coast: Using dead recovery modeling in an open population
The primary objective of this study was to determine cougar density in western Oregon. Our results demonstrate that integrating DNA collected via bio‐darting, mandatory hunter‐harvest check‐ins, and GPS collar data into the OPCR2 is a reliable method for estimating cougar densities in densely forested coastal systems.

Are Academic Executives Greener? Evidence From China
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the impact of executives with academic backgrounds (“academic executives”) on corporate green patents. We find that both the presence of academic executives and the proportion of academic executives have a significantly positive impact on firms' green patents, and this effect is positively associated with the firm's ...

Species distribution models (SDMs) have been widely used in ecology to understand how species relate to environmental variation. Most SDMs are correlative, and they lack explicit reference to the underlying processes, and therefore, the reliability of ...
