Conformal Inference for Experimental Attrition in Social Science Research
社会科学实验样本流失的共形推断
Attrition in survey and field experiments presents a challenge for social science research. Common approaches to deal with this problem -- such as complete case analysis, multiple imputation, and weighting methods -- rely on strong assumptions that may not hold in practice. This paper introduces a new method that combines recent advances in statistical inference with established tools for handling missing data. The approach produces prediction intervals for treatment effects…
