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. Building on this identification result, we develop a unified semiparametric framework for estimating the ATT. Notably, the identification-robust moment function satisfies Neyman orthogonality under the parallel trends assumption but not under the SC assumption, leading to different asymptotic variances across the two identification strategies. To ensure valid inference, we propose a multiplier bootstrap method that consistently approximates the asymptotic distribution under either assumption. Furthermore, we extend our methodology to accommodate repeated cross-sectional data and staggered treatment designs. As an empirical application, we evaluate the impact of the 2003 minimum-wage increase in Alaska on family income. Finally, in simulation studies based on empirically calibrated data-generating processes, we demonstrate that the proposed estimation and inference methods perform well in finite samples under either identification assumption.
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…
半参数三重差分估计量
The triple difference causal inference framework is an extension of the well-known difference-in-differences framework. It relaxes the parallel trends assumption of the difference-in-differences framework through leveraging data from an auxiliary domain. Despite being commonly applied in empirical research, the triple difference framework has received relatively limited attention in the statistics literature. Specifically, investigating the intricacies of identification and…
去偏且具有半参数效率的变化中变化估计量
We present a novel extension of the influential changes-in-changes (CiC) framework of Athey and Imbens (2006) for estimating the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT) and distributional causal effects in panel data with unmeasured confounding. While CiC relaxes the parallel trends assumption in difference-in-differences (DiD), existing methods typically assume a scalar unobserved confounder and monotonic outcome relationships, and lack inference tools that…
双重差分中组别—时期条件平均处理效应的双重稳健一致置信带
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 (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…
高效的双重差分与事件研究估计量
This paper investigates efficient Difference-in-Differences (DiD) and Event Study (ES) estimation using short panel data sets within the heterogeneous treatment effect framework, free from parametric functional form assumptions and allowing for variation in treatment timing. We provide an equivalent characterization of the DiD potential outcome model using sequential conditional moment restrictions on observables, which shows that the DiD identification assumptions typically…
用于政策学习的半参数工具变量双重差分方法
Summary Recently, there has been a surge in methodological development for the difference-in-differences approach to evaluate causal effects. Standard methods in the literature rely on the parallel-trend assumption to identify the average treatment effect on the treated. However, the parallel-trend assumption may be violated in the presence of unmeasured confounding, and the average treatment effect on the treated may not be useful in learning a treatment assignment policy…
