Recent developments in the econometrics of program evaluation

program evaluation

Wooldridge JM, Imbens G.
GSID: JUw_yexbG8oJ
JM Wooldridge, G Imbens - 2009 - sociorepec.org

Many empirical questions in economics and other social sciences depend on causal effects of programs or policies. In the last two decades, much research has been done on the econometric and statistical analysis of such causal effects. This recent...

… sensitivity analysis to the evaluation of labormarket programs. In nonexperimental evaluation of labor-market programs researchers are often concerned about biases arising from differences in motivation between those volunteering for a program and those who do not. Strong …

… ’s birthday or address, where the probability of participating in the program changes discontinuously at a threshold value of the forcing variable. … We find that the summer school program has a substantial effect, raising the math test...

Recursive partitioning for heterogeneous causal effects.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Athey S, Imbens G.
PMID: 27382149
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2016 Jul 05;113(27):7353-60. doi: 10.1073/pnas.1510489113.

In this paper we propose methods for estimating heterogeneity in causal effects in experimental and observational studies and for conducting hypothesis tests about the magnitude of differences in treatment effects across subsets of the population. We provide a data-driven...

Assessing the effect of an influenza vaccine in an encouragement design.

Biostatistics (Oxford, England)

Hirano K, Imbens GW, Rubin DB, Zhou XH.
PMID: 12933526
Biostatistics. 2000 Mar;1(1):69-88. doi: 10.1093/biostatistics/1.1.69.

Many randomized experiments suffer from noncompliance. Some of these experiments, so-called encouragement designs, can be expected to have especially large amounts of noncompliance, because encouragement to take the treatment rather than the treatment itself is randomly assigned to individuals....

Rapid conversion of an oceanic spreading center to a subduction zone inferred from high-precision geochronology.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Keenan TE, Encarnación J, Buchwaldt R, Fernandez D, Mattinson J, Rasoazanamparany C, Luetkemeyer PB, Gelman A, Imbens G.
PMID: 27821756
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2016 Nov 22;113(47):E7359-E7366. doi: 10.1073/pnas.1609999113. Epub 2016 Nov 07.

Where and how subduction zones initiate is a fundamental tectonic problem, yet there are few well-constrained geologic tests that address the tectonic settings and dynamics of the process. Numerical modeling has shown that oceanic spreading centers are some of...
