Doubly robust estimation of the local average treatment effect curve.
We consider estimation of the causal effect of a binary treatment on an outcome, conditionally on covariates, from observational studies or natural experiments in which there is a binary instrument for treatment. We describe a doubly robust, locally efficient estimator of the parameters indexing a model for the local average treatment effect conditionally on covariates V when randomization of t...
متن کاملStratified doubly robust estimators for the average causal effect.
Suppose we are interested in estimating the average causal effect from an observational study. A doubly robust estimator, which is a hybrid of the outcome regression and propensity score weighting, is more robust than estimators obtained by either of them in the sense that, if at least one of the two models holds, the doubly robust estimator is consistent. However, a doubly robust estimator may...
متن کاملRobust Confidence Intervals for Average Treatment Effects under Limited Overlap
Robust Confidence Intervals for Average Treatment Effects under Limited Overlap Estimators of average treatment effects under unconfounded treatment assignment are known to become rather imprecise if there is limited overlap in the covariate distributions between the treatment groups. But such limited overlap can also have a detrimental effect on inference, and lead for example to highly distor...
متن کاملBootstrap Confidence Intervals for the Estimation of Average Treatment Effect on Propensity Score
Funded by collage st. innovative projects Received: January 21, 2011 Accepted: February 10, 2011 doi:10.5539/jmr.v3n3p52 Abstract Causal inferences on the average treatment effect in observational studies are always difficult problems because the distributions of samples in the two treatment groups can not be observed at the same time, and the estimation of the treatment effect is often biased....
متن کاملAverage Treatment Effect
We are interested in average changes in outcome y after a policy change. As in the case of the medical field, we are interested in the outcomes of a new medicine, including its effectiveness and its side effect. To do that, it is typical that we randomly divide patients into two groups, the treatment group, and the control group. The treatment group is given the medicine while the control group...
