A common empirical strategy in triple-differences (DDD) is to include either covariate trends or covariate levels to a three-way fixed effects (3WFE) regression. This strategy is typically motivated by the conditional parallel gaps assumption which assumes that deviations from parallel trends are similar among units with comparable observed covariates. We formally study both 3WFE specifications and show that, in general, neither consistently estimates the average treatment effect on the treated (ATT). Our diagnosis has two parts. First, we show that the OLS estimands of both specifications fail to satisfy the covariate balancing condition that is sufficient for them to equal the ATT. Second, we characterize the additional assumptions for each OLS estimand to equal the ATT. To address these limitations, we propose a matched triple-differences framework that accommodates a general class of matching procedures, including nearest-neighbor matching and kernel matching. Within this framework, we construct a class of consistent matching estimators, establish their asymptotic normality, and provide a consistent variance estimator that accounts for the variability introduced by the matching step. Our empirical application shows that the proposed matched triple-differences estimator can yield estimates and qualitative conclusions that differ from those obtained using the 3WFE regression.
平均处理效应局部化:合成控制中的投影方法
Many real-world policies and business interventions require assessing short-term effects to inform timely decisions, even though most causal inference methods focus on long-term average treatment effects. In this article, we introduce average treatment effect localization (ATEL), which captures localized, short-term policy impacts in panel data settings with a single treated unit and provides early indicators of policy impact. To accommodate both time-varying and nonlinear…
大面板中的简洁、无需特定参数设定的因果推断
We propose a simple and transparent approach to causal inference using panel data with a large number of units and periods. Instead of imposing a particular parametric specification on the untreated potential outcomes, we assume they follow a nonparametric nonseparable factor model. We use long pre-treatment outcome histories to construct a measure of similarity between the latent factors of different units. Using this measure, we impute missing counterfactual means and…
动态选择下的因果推断:时变协变量与潜在异质性
I study dynamic treatment effects in panel data under staggered adoption when treatment timing depends jointly on unobserved time-invariant heterogeneity and time-varying pretreatment covariates, including lagged outcomes. Untreated potential outcomes follow a nonparametric dynamic panel model that allows flexible interactions between time-varying covariates and latent heterogeneity. I use pretreatment outcome histories to find individuals with similar time-invariant latent…

因果状态依赖局部投影
State-dependent local projections (LPs) are widely used to study how causal effects vary as a function of economic states, but shock exogeneity alone does not identify this response function. We show that identification follows when the underlying conditional mean is linear in the shock with a state-dependent coefficient, a condition satisfied in canonical micro-macro environments, including first-order perturbation solutions of heterogeneous-agent and macro-finance models.…
利用辅助信息的稳健矩阵估计
We introduce a flexible framework for high-dimensional matrix estimation to incorporate side information for both rows and columns. Existing approaches, such as inductive matrix completion, often impose restrictive structure-for example, an exact low-rank covariate interaction term, linear covariate effects, and limited ability to exploit components explained only by one side (row or column) or by neither-and frequently omit an explicit noise component. To address these…
