Using Randomization Tests to Preserve Type I Error With Response-Adaptive and Covariate-Adaptive Randomization.
We demonstrate that clinical trials using response adaptive randomized treatment assignment rules are subject to substantial bias if there are time trends in unknown prognostic factors and standard methods of analysis are used. We develop a general class of randomization tests based on generating the null distribution of a general test statistic by repeating the adaptive randomized treatment as...
متن کاملPolitical Science 236 Randomization inference
Most of this course will be devoted to the study of treatment effects in the absence of random assignment of subjects to treatments. As we will see, performing causal inference in the absence of random treatment assignment requires that we make fairly strong assumptions. In contrast, when treatment is assigned randomly, treatment effects can be estimated with very mild assumptions and, very imp...
متن کاملCovariate-based constrained randomization of group-randomized trials.
Group-randomized study designs are useful when individually randomized designs are either not possible, or will not be able to estimate the parameters of interest. Blocked and/or stratified (for example, pair-matched) designs have been used, and their properties statistically evaluated by many researchers. Group-randomized trials often have small numbers of experimental units, and strong, geogr...
متن کاملDiscriminative Learning Under Covariate Shift
We address classification problems for which the training instances are governed by an input distribution that is allowed to differ arbitrarily from the test distribution—problems also referred to as classification under covariate shift. We derive a solution that is purely discriminative: neither training nor test distribution are modeled explicitly. The problem of learning under covariate shif...
متن کاملRandomization Inference in a Group–Randomized Trial of Treatments for Depression: Covariate Adjustment, Noncompliance, and Quantile Effects
In the Prospect Study, in 10 pairs of two primary-care practices, one practice was picked at random to receive a “depression care manager” to treat its depressed patients. Randomization inference, properly performed, reflects the assignment of practices, not patients, to treatment or control. Yet, pertinent data describe individual patients: depression outcomes, baseline covariates, compliance ...
