This paper concerns estimation and inference for treatment effects in deep tails of the counterfactual distribution of unobservable potential outcomes corresponding to a continuously valued treatment. We consider two measures for the deep tail characteristics: the extreme quantile function and the tail mean function defined as the conditional mean beyond a quantile level. Then we define the extreme quantile treatment effect (EQTE) and the extreme average treatment effect (EATE), which can be identified through the commonly adopted unconfoundedness condition and estimated with the aid of extreme value theory. Our limiting theory is for the EQTE and EATE processes indexed by a set of quantile levels and hence facilitates uniform inference. Simulations suggest that our method works well in finite samples and an empirical application illustrates its practical merit.
分布值结局的工具变量回归
We develop IV Fréchet regression (IVFR), an instrumental-variable (IV) method for settings where the outcome is an entire distribution. Framing the problem as an IV regression in 2-Wasserstein space, IVFR extends global Fréchet regression to the case with endogenous covariates. IVFR projects IV-weighted quantile curves onto the space of valid distributions and then recovers the corresponding regression coefficient functions. The projection provably reduces the estimation…
可能非连续结局下处理组的分位数与分布处理效应
Applied Difference-in-Differences studies often involve outcomes that are discrete, mixed, censored, or otherwise non-continuously distributed, while policy questions frequently concern distributional effects rather than mean effects alone. This paper develops a distributional DiD framework for identifying and conducting uniform inference on distribution and quantile treatment effects on the treated in such settings under stated identifying and regularity conditions.…
有序结果的因果推断:基于 Copula 的识别、估计与敏感性分析
In causal inference with ordinal outcomes, several interpretable estimands are functions of the probability that the potential outcome under one treatment is larger than that under another treatment for the same unit. This probability depends on the joint distribution of both potential outcomes and is generally not identifiable. Existing work has focused on sharp bounds of this probability based on partial identification, but bounds are often too wide to be informative. We…
尖锐回归折点设计中局部处理效应识别与推断的统一框架
This paper develops a unified framework for the identification, estimation, and uniform inference of local treatment effects (LTEs) in sharp regression kink designs (RKDs). These LTEs quantify the effect of a marginal change in the treatment at the kink point on various features of the outcome distribution. The identification strategy applies to Hadamard-differentiable functionals of the outcome distribution -- including means, quantiles, and inequality measures -- and…
一般干预下结局条件化偏效应的识别与推断
This paper proposes a new class of distributional causal quantities, referred to as the \textit{outcome conditioned partial policy effects} (OCPPEs), to measure the \textit{average} effect of a general counterfactual intervention of a target covariate on the individuals in different quantile ranges of the outcome distribution. The OCPPE approach is valuable in several aspects: (i) Unlike the unconditional quantile partial effect (UQPE) that is not $\sqrt{n}$-estimable, an…
结果条件平均结构导数的识别与自动去偏机器学习
This study proposes a new class of heterogeneous causal quantities, referred to as outcome-conditioned average structural derivatives (OASDs), in a general nonseparable model. An OASD is the average partial effect of a marginal change in a continuous treatment on individuals located on different parts of an outcome distribution, irrespective of individuals’ characteristics. We show that OASDs extend the unconditional quantile partial effects (UQPE) proposed by Firpo, Fortin,…
