More power to you: Using machine learning to augment human coding for more efficient inference in text-based randomized trials
用机器学习辅助人工编码,提高文本随机试验的推断效率
For randomized trials that use text as an outcome, traditional approaches for assessing treatment impact require that each document first be manually coded for constructs of interest by trained human raters. This process, the current standard, is both time-consuming and limiting: even the largest human coding efforts are typically constrained to measure only a small set of dimensions across a subsample of available texts. In this work, we present an inferential framework…
