Interacting Treatments With Endogenous Takeup
ABSTRACT We study causal inference in randomized experiments (or quasi‐experiments) following a 2×2$$ 2\times 2 $$ factorial design. There are two treatments, denoted A$$ A $$ and B$$ B $$, and units are randomly assigned to one of four categories: treatment A$$ A $$ alone, treatment B$$ B $$ alone, joint treatment, or none. Allowing for endogenous non‐
