Migrants, Ancestors, and Investments

Burchardi, Konrad B. - 2016

We use 130 years of data on historical migrations to the United States to show a causal effect of the ancestry composition of US counties on foreign direct investment (FDI) sent and received by local firms. To isolate the causal effect of ancestry on FDI, we build a simple reduced-form model of...

Savings Promotion, Investment Promotion, and International Competitiveness

Goulder, Lawrence H. - 1988

In an open economy, savings- and investment-promoting policies may have very different effects on the capital account … effects in both the short and long run. We focus on the different effects of savings- and investment-promoting U.S. tax … fundamentally depending on the degree of international capital mobility. In the absence of such mobility, savings- and investment …

Designing Difference in Difference Studies With Staggered Treatment Adoption : Key Concepts and Practical Guidelines

Freedman, Seth; Hollingsworth, Alex; Simon, Kosali … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2023

Difference-in-Difference (DID) estimators are a valuable method for identifying causal effects in the public health researcher's toolkit. A growing methods literature points out potential problems with DID estimators when treatment is staggered in adoption and varies with time. Despite this, no...

Fisher-Schultz Lecture : Linear Estimation of Structural and Causal Effects for Nonseparable Panel Data

Chernozhukov, Victor; Deaner, Ben; Gao, Ying; Hausman, … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2025

This paper develops linear estimators for structural and causal parameters in nonparametric,nonseparable models using panel data. These models incorporate unobserved, time-varying, individual heterogeneity, which may be correlated with the regressors. Estimation is based on an approximation of...

Mean Reversion in Randomized Controlled Trials : Implications for Program Targeting and Heterogeneous Treatment Effects

Alsan, Marcella; Cawley, John H.; Doyle, Joseph J.; … - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2025

Eligibility criteria for interventions can induce an Ashenfelter Dip, and subsequent mean-reversion may result in improvement over time even absent the intervention. We investigate these dynamics for a food-as-medicine program to treat diabetes, where eligibility required elevated hemoglobin A1c...

Linear Estimation of Global Average Treatment Effects

Faridani, Stefan; Niehaus, Paul - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2024

We study the problem of estimating the average causal effect of treating every member of a population, as opposed to none, using an experiment that treats only some. We consider settings where spillovers have global support and decay slowly with (a generalized notion of) distance. We derive the...
