Calibrated sensitivity models
校准敏感性模型
Summary In causal inference, sensitivity models are used to assess how unmeasured confounders could alter causal analyses, but the sensitivity parameter (which quantifies the degree of unmeasured confounding) is often difficult to interpret. For this reason, researchers sometimes compare the sensitivity parameter to an estimate of measured confounding, a process known as calibration or benchmarking. However, calibrated estimates are not always interpreted correctly, and…
