Surrogate markers offer the potential to reduce the burden of data collection by replacing costly or invasive primary outcomes with more accessible measurements, provided that they can faithfully indicate the effectiveness of a treatment. However, appropriate evaluation of a surrogate is particularly complex in longitudinal studies, where both outcomes and surrogates can evolve dynamically over time and interest lies not only in the treatment effect at one time, but rather treatment effects that may vary along the entire trajectory. In this paper, we develop a statistical framework for surrogate evaluation when both the surrogate and primary outcome are measured over time. Specifically, within the potential outcomes framework, we propose a formal causal definition of the proportion of the treatment effect on the longitudinal primary outcome that is explained by the treatment effect on the longitudinal surrogate. For estimation, we leverage state-space models, together with the Kalman filter and smoother, enabling efficient estimation of treatment effects under realistic conditions of temporal evolution and patient-level variability. We introduce a nonparametric bootstrap strategy for state-space models, a temporal homogeneity test, and demonstrate the finite-sample performance of our proposed methods via a simulation study and application to a diabetes clinical trial.
The bootstrap is widely used to construct confidence intervals but may perform poorly for some estimators. We consider semiparametric estimators that use cross-validation to estimate nuisance pa- rameters and can be computationally expensive in large datasets. We illustrate potential problems with bootstrapping with replacement when cross-validation is used and extend the cheap bootstrap confidence interval to subsampling without replacement for asymptotically linear…
双重差分与合成控制的结合:双重稳健识别和估计
Difference-in-Differences (DiD) and Synthetic Control (SC) are widely used methods for causal inference in panel data, each with distinct strengths and limitations. We propose a novel method for short-panel causal inference that integrates the advantages of both approaches. Our method delivers a doubly robust identification strategy for the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) under either of two non-nested assumptions: parallel trends or a group-level SC condition.…
双重稳健的交错双重差分组别—时期条件平均处理效应一致置信带
We consider a panel data analysis to examine the heterogeneity in treatment effects with respect to groups, periods, and a pre-treatment covariate of interest in the staggered difference-in-differences setting of Callaway and Sant’Anna. Under standard identification conditions, a doubly robust estimand conditional on the covariate identifies the group-time conditional average treatment effect given the covariate. Focusing on the case of a continuous covariate, we propose a…

We consider a panel data analysis to examine the heterogeneity in treatment effects with respect to groups, periods, and a pre-treatment covariate of interest in the staggered difference-in-differences setting of Callaway and Sant'Anna (2021). Under standard identification conditions, a doubly robust estimand conditional on the covariate identifies the group-time conditional average treatment effect given the covariate. Focusing on the case of a continuous covariate, we…
交互固定效应面板模型中处理效应的置信区间
We augment the factor-based estimation of treatment effects proposed by Bai and Ng (2021) with easy-to-implement and nonparametric confidence intervals of treatment effects on every treated unit at every post-treatment time. The construction of confidence intervals entails a residual-based bootstrap resampling procedure. This method does not rely on any parametric assumption on the distribution of idiosyncratic errors and it is robust to weak cross-sectional and time-series…
通过多重插补实现因果推断中的 G 公式
G-formula is a popular approach for estimating treatment or exposure effects from longitudinal data that are subject to time-varying confounding. G-formula estimation is typically performed by Monte-Carlo simulation, with non-parametric bootstrapping used for inference. We show that G-formula can be implemented by exploiting existing methods for multiple imputation (MI) for synthetic data. This involves using an existing modified version of Rubin's variance estimator. In…
