A general instrumental variable framework for regression analysis with outcome missing not at random.
The instrumental variable (IV) design is a well-known approach for unbiased evaluation of causal effects in the presence of unobserved confounding. In this article, we study the IV approach to account for selection bias in regression analysis with outcome missing not at random. In such a setting, a valid IV is a variable which (i) predicts the nonresponse process, and (ii) is independent of the...
متن کاملOptimal Design When Outcome Values Are Not Missing at Random
The presence of missing values complicates statistical analyses. In design of experiments, missing values are particularly problematic when constructing optimal designs, as it is not known which values are missing at the design stage. When data are missing at random it is possible to incorporate this information into the optimality criterion that is used to find designs; Imhof, Song, and Wong (...
متن کاملInstrumental Variable Analysis with a Nonlinear Exposure–Outcome Relationship
BACKGROUND Instrumental variable methods can estimate the causal effect of an exposure on an outcome using observational data. Many instrumental variable methods assume that the exposure-outcome relation is linear, but in practice this assumption is often in doubt, or perhaps the shape of the relation is a target for investigation. We investigate this issue in the context of Mendelian randomiza...
متن کاملInstrumental Variable Quantile Regression * †
Quantile regression is an increasingly important tool that estimates the conditional quantiles of a response Y given a vector of regressors D. It usefully generalizes Laplace’s median regression and can be used to measure the effect of covariates not only in the center of a distribution, but also in the upper and lower tails. For the linear quantile model defined by Y = D′γ(U) where D′γ(U) is s...
متن کاملEfficiency transfer for regression models with responses missing at random
We consider independent observations on a random pair (X,Y ), where the response Y is allowed to be missing at random but the covariate vector X is always observed. We demonstrate that characteristics of the conditional distribution of Y given X can be estimated efficiently using complete case analysis, i.e., one can simply omit incomplete cases and work with an appropriate efficient estimator ...
