Evaluation of public training programs has stronger developed in the last decades because of the use of causal inference methods. This paper shows an overview of the disposable methods of public training programs evaluation in the context of randomized experiments also in observational studies....

Proxy variables are often used in linear regression models with the aim of removing potential confounding bias. In this paper we formalise proxy variables within the potential outcome framework, giving conditions under which it can be shown that causal effects are nonparametrically identified....

In observational studies, the non-parametric estimation of a binary treatment effect is often performed by matching each treated individual with a control unit which is similar in observed characteristics (covariates). In practical applications, the reservoir of covariates available may be...
