Applied Statistics Seminar on Tuesday (February 7, 2023) at 12 PM
Abstract: The exchangeability of units between treatment groups is a key and typically untestable assumption for evaluating causal intervention effects in observational studies. Standard methods assuming exchangeability can yield biased treatment effect estimates if the assumption does not hold. Existing methods evaluate the sensitivity of treatment effect estimates to non-exchangeability due to unmeasured confounders only.
