A roadmap for systematic identification and analysis of multiple biases in causal inference
因果推断中系统识别与联合分析多重偏差的路线图
Observational studies examining causal effects rely on unverifiable assumptions, the violation of which can induce multiple biases. Quantitative bias analysis (QBA) methods examine the sensitivity of findings to such violations, generally, by producing estimates under alternative assumptions, incorporating external information. Although substantial guidance exists for implementing QBA, there is limited guidance on how to systematically determine the assumptions underlying a…
