We address an ambiguity in identification strategies using difference-in-differences, which are widely applied in empirical research, particularly in economics. The assumption commonly referred to as the "no-anticipation assumption" states that treatment has no effect on outcomes before its implementation. However, because standard causal models rely on a temporal structure in which causes precede effects, such an assumption seems to be inherently satisfied. This raises the question of whether the assumption is repeatedly stated out of redundancy or because the formal statements fail to capture the intended subject-matter interpretation. We argue that confusion surrounding the no-anticipation assumption arises from ambiguity in the intervention considered and that current formulations of the assumption are ambiguous. Therefore, new definitions and identification results are proposed.
We study difference-in-differences designs in which all units are initially untreated and later receive heterogeneous, strictly positive treatment doses. When quasi-untreated units receive doses close to zero, a difference-in-difference estimand using those units as the control group identifies a weighted average treatment effect per unit of treatment, under a parallel-trends assumption. We develop a nonparametric estimator and bias-corrected confidence intervals for this…
伪面板事件研究:可信应用的计量经济学基础
Event studies with panel data are widely used to estimate treatment effects. With repeated cross-sections, future treatment dates are unobserved for untreated individuals. Pseudo-panel event studies impute pre-treatment outcomes of the treated using matched untreated individuals. This paper establishes identification in such designs and characterizes bias when identification conditions fail. I show that the pseudo-panel regression is equivalent to weighted least squares with…
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.…
含时变中介变量与滞后结果的双重差分模型
We study difference-in-differences (DiD) designs in which a binary treatment changes an endogenous time-varying (continuous, discrete, or mixed) mediator that in turn affects an outcome. We allow for the inclusion of lagged outcomes in the model. Under our model assumptions, we show that the usual DiD estimand mixes the average direct effect on the treated, the average indirect effect, and a trend bias term. A two-way fixed effects (TWFE) regression that controls for the…
固定效应模型中的调查参与效应:识别与偏差传递
Panel conditioning, the causal effect of prior survey participation on responses, can vary with tenure. Under an additive model of cell means in period, entry cohort, and tenure, we characterize which features of the conditioning path a staggered panel identifies on its observed support, and how the unidentified component affects common panel estimators. The identified set of the path is an affine translate of the tenure projection of the cell design's kernel, and a linear…
利用受治地区微观数据识别比较案例研究中的异质政策效应
Policy reforms are sometimes accompanied by detailed individual-level data in the implementing jurisdiction, while only aggregate outcomes are available for potential comparison jurisdictions. This article develops an identification framework for heterogeneous policy effects when individual-level data are unavailable for the comparison units. The framework combines treatment-effect contrasts from difference-in-differences comparisons within the treated jurisdiction with a…
