An Introduction to Causal Inference

by Paul Rosenbaum ...

A daily glass of wine prolongs life—yet alcohol can cause life-threatening cancer. Some say raising the minimum wage will decrease inequality while others say it increases unemployment. Scientists once confidently claimed that hormone replacement therapy reduced the risk of heart disease but now they equally confidently claim it raises that risk. What should we make of this endless barrage of ... Read more

Replication and Evidence Factors in Observational Studies

by Paul Rosenbaum ...

Series series Chapman & Hall/CRC Monographs on Statistics and Applied Probability
Outside of randomized experiments, association does not imply causation, and yet there is nothing defective about our knowledge that smoking causes lung cancer, a conclusion reached in the absence of randomized experimentation with humans. How is that possible? If observed associations do not identify causal effects in observational studies, how can a sequence of such associations become decisive ... Read more

Handbook of Matching and Weighting Adjustments for Causal Inference

Edited by José R. Zubizarreta, Elizabeth A. Stuart, Dylan S. Small, Paul R. Rosenbaum ...

Series series Chapman & Hall/CRC Handbooks of Modern Statistical Methods
An observational study infers the effects caused by a treatment, policy, program, intervention, or exposure in a context in which randomized experimentation is unethical or impractical. One task in an observational study is to adjust for visible pretreatment differences between the treated and control groups. Multivariate matching and weighting are two modern forms of adjustment.
