Counting Defiers: A Design-Based Model of an Experiment Can Reveal Evidence Beyond the Average Effect
计数反向响应者:实验设计模型提供超越平均效应的证据
Using only a binary intervention and outcome and the design of the randomization within an experiment, we construct a design-based likelihood of the joint distribution of potential outcomes in the sample -- the numbers of always takers, compliers, defiers, and never takers. We develop a visualization to show that samples with defiers can sometimes generate the data in more ways than samples without, yielding a higher likelihood. This likelihood can vary within the Frechet…
