Policy discontinuity and duration outcomes
Berg, Gerard J. van den; Bozio, Antoine; Dias, Mónica Costa - 2015
Causal effects of a policy change on hazard rates of a duration outcome variable are not identified from a comparison of spells before and after the policy change, if there is unobserved heterogeneity in the effects and no model structure is imposed. We develop a discontinuity approach that...

Decomposing a matching estimation : correlated unobserved non-random selection, substitution, and causal effects in a large scale ALMP Program in Germany ; conference paper
Brändle, Tobias; Fervers, Lukas; Webel, Carina - 2014 - Preliminary version
perform matching estimations to analyse the treatment effect on the treated. In the cross-section estimation, we find …-participants. Therefore, we combine matching with difference-in-difference estimation (to control for unobserved heterogeneity), Doing so, we … matching estimation can be decomposed into a causal effect (6%-points), correlated unobserved heterogeneity and negative spill …

Going beyond LATE : bounding average treatment effects of job corps training
Chen, Xuan; Flores, Carlos; Flores-Lagunes, Alfonso - 2015
We derive nonparametric sharp bounds on average treatment effects with an instrumental variable (IV) and use them to evaluate the effectiveness of the Job Corps (JC) training program for disadvantaged youth. We concentrate on the population average treatment effect (ATE) and the average...
